I9 MICROCOSM 34 Biology and Health Biology deals with life, and with living things, of which we are a part. To understand the world about us, to appreciate the beauty and wonders of plant and ani- mal life, to know ourselves, and to attempt an explana- tion of social behavior, we need some background of bi- ology, some knowledge ofthe nature of living material. Much of our biology instruction is liberal, rather than technical. The Department makes a contribution to the preparation for technical work in several schools, not- ably, Household Economics, Nursing, and Social Work. Those who continue their biological subjects in the School of Science during their Senior year may prepare 1 for various technical fields, including public health, and hospital laboratory positions, research assistants, and teaching. Such work brings more than ordinary satisfactions to the individual in that it often contributes directly to human welfare and health. -Curtis Morrison Hilliard CURTIS MORRISON HILLIARD, Przfessor Q' Biology and Public Health.
