The improvement of logic and critical thinking along with the development of the capability to express both with clarity are the underlying goals of the department. An understanding of histori- cal techniques as well as social and cultural processes and an ac- quaintance with the forces influencing the world and our heritage are the vehicles through which the goal will be reached. Courses are offered in Geography, World History, and Government-Econo mics. All students are required to take United States History, and at least two of the other social studies courses for graduation. lVlr. James Forkey, Department Head Mfr I f. I i . I ..f, - ,- if ,.

Our first ob- jective is to develop a sincere interest in science, so that those who have native ability in the subject matter might choose this as a career. Secondly, we feel that developing a practical ap- plication of science to everyday living is of the utmost impor- tance. lt senfes not only as a motivation to the student, but helps him to better understand the newer innovations of our modern world. lVlr.
