Understanding strikes the keynote of contemporary living and it is the goal of the History Department to direct students in personal under- standing of the problems of today’s world that they may be better equipped to deal with the future. Using the problematic approach, teachers of American History and Civics attempt to bridge the genera- tion gap that the future leaders might understand the goals and correct the mistakes of their ancestors. In a similar vein, courses in Modern European History and Contemporary History are presented to direct the students’ attention outward toward comprehension of the world situation, and of the elements of ancestry which made it that way. Students are encouraged to evaluate and analyze, expressing ideas which may well be implemented in the future through their leadership. Recognizing the needs of a changing world, the History Department this year has added Current Events and Economics to its course offer- ings. Both are one-semester subjects which allow time for individual research into areas both interesting and challenging to the individual. The implementation of new ideas and new methods of expression is indicative of the History Department’s recognition that today’s stu- dents must be prepared to participate and take a meaningful place in their society, one that is created and shaped by their ideas and attitudes.
