Most of the students are given the impression that general science is a lower subiect in terms of being helpful and it would be best to go on up the line to biology with the general science course. Mr. Sprinkle, gen. science instructor, stated that one learns science better by doing the actual analysis than by just reading about it. Gen science is almost all experiments. V Gen. science does relate to the other fields of sciences. Two books in this course cover biology and two books cover physics. The last book covers the general methods which are roots to all of the other science fields. Biology is designed to help people become familiar with their surroundings and how the person is useful to these surroundings. lt aids in showing a person how he can appreciate nature in general. This year the biology class took field trips to various places. They'went to the Clark Co. Hospital, l.U.S., and Speed Park. The use of a microscope is a must in the field of biology.
