MATHEMATICS GEORGE P. EVANOVICH, M.Ed. Rutgers University J. H. HALEY, B.A. Glassboro State College Sometimes called “The Handmaiden of Science,” mathematics benefits anyone who studies it. Everyday life involves money, as well as various jobs. The mathematics program at Sayreville is designed to meet all the needs of the students. Besides our Geometry, Algebra, and Trigonometry sequence, specialized courses in Analytic Geometry, Matrices, Probability, and Statistics are now offered to students as electives. The courses in Industrial Mathematics, begun last year, is being continued and will be expanded to include shop Trigonometry. The student who studies mathematics expands his mind and becomes more alert and precise. JAMES B.

In various jobs we encounter many people who do not speak the English language. Once in a lifetime trips are a thing of the past; summer vacations abroad are quite common. A language barrier can complicate situations somewhat. Therefore, the study of foreign languages is offered to high school students, who, upon graduation find many uses for this knowledge. Four languages available to our students are Spanish, French, German, and Latin. The audio-lingual method is used, applying the principles by which we learn the English lan- guage: hearing, repeating, reading, and writ- ing. A complete program is set up, beginning with dialogue and intervening culture and customs of the foreign countries. JANET CULL, A.B.

Pennsylvania State University IRENE ARTHUR, M.A. New York University Department Chairman SCIENCE ANGELINA ROMANO, B.S. Douglass College Through observing and experi- menting the science student dis- covers many amazing facets of life. The study of science is a rewarding experience, enabling the students to better understand the world around them. Innovations in the Science De- partment include the introduction of an Aeronautics course, and additional lab facilities in Biology. More students are realizing the value of science; they are becom- ing aware of the scientific and technological advances in the world. This brings about a larger enrollment in the science program each year. LINDA ANN BUONO, M.Ed. Rutgers University 17
