MATHEMATICS MR. FRANK J. BITZAN Algebra 1; Geometry. Hard worker keep up Mr. Lewi ' reputation. Mathematics isn't just a mass of unrelated numbers and figures; if is a unified language with many applications to everyday living. In its essence, it offers to young minds a challenge and fascination in the realm of functions and number systems while inviting them to explore mathematical structure method. During the course of his four years here at St. Ignatius, an Ignatian does explore this world-from undefined terms to calculus-as he and his fellow Ignatians are offered one of the finest math courses in the area. A freshman's introduction to algebra takes the form of sets and basic number properties; whereupon, he works up through polynominals to graphs. The year ends with a taste of trigonometry and geometric functions. An Ignatian's second year of math concerns itself with the study of both plane and solid geometry. The knowledge acquired in this course, coupled with that of the first-year algebra, gives a student the solid background he needs to study advanced algebra and analysis in third and fourth years. As a junior, an Ignatius student tackles advanced algebra and trigonometry. As the year progresses, he becomes acquainted with various number systems different from our own. Included in his studies are trigonometry and other types of graphs not required in his previous courses. The fourth-year math course gives a choice to a student. He may take either introductory analysis or an advanced placement calculus course for college credit. And when an Ignatian completes his four years of mathematics, he has truly profited from his venture within the magic kingdom of numbers. MR. GEORGE G. DESCAMPS, S.J.
