This is a representation and combination of the areas of social studies in which the students of Roncalli are involved. Three such classes exist, Senior Modem I l f l Problems (including Psychology), Junior U. S. History, and Sophomore-Freshman Social Studies. I’m trying to teach my modern problems students to be o success. Mr. Charles Hanish I'm trying to teach my Modem Problems students to be a success—reliable and well-balanced people. (Charles Hanish) We have to read Psycho-Cybernetics in Modem. It's supposed to change your attitude in 21 days. It hasn't changed mine yet. (Kathy McCarry) We had a test today in government, and I actually enjoyed taking it! (Kathy Yunker) Enjoyed it! How could you? (Mary M. Dunhom) Do you have any current events to share with your class today? (Sr. Marmion Maiers) We watched Indian films in American History, and they sang so loud I got a headache. (Barb Leisen) What did we do in Social Studies? Well what didn't we do! We studied early man first, then about the Chinese. Oh, and then we studied the Greek gods. (Dan Howell) Senior Tom Schmidt quietly absorbs assigned pages of The Greening of America for Modem Problems. I like the teacher, Mr. Hanish is interesting. So far, we've studied Europe and now we have world geogra- phy. (Debbie Lindner) 16

Juniors bring history alive in this skit. John Paul Jones (Dick Molseed) is interrogated by Falter Conkrite (Greg Bell) as the naval officer emphasizes his famous pro- clamation, I have not yet begun to fight. Modem Problems is so relevant. It's not history or math, but it affects daily life so much. It helps bring all other things we've learned into focus. At first I didn't understand at all, but now that it's more on my own level it's getting better. (Carol Weber) Because I'm able to go on individual study in Amer- ican History, I think I learn so much more. I can go at my own speed. (Jeff Murphy) Everybody has a country to make a booklet on in Social Studies. We have to include maps, land fea- tures, flag, education, just about all the information we can find about the country. (Jim Schriver) The reason I took Social Studies was because, uh, I don't know. (Mary Beth Engelhart) Don't fall asleep with open eyes. (Becky Rovang) American History students Jerry Eckrich, Steve Keenen and Steve Schmidt admire projects made by fellow class mates. 17
