Math, one of the most basic disciplines in everyday life, is given its chance every year at SJC, freshman through senior. The Freshmen had their chance at either Algebra l or Basic Math. Those in Algebra I were introduced into the math department by Sr. Margaret, who used her mathe- matical abilities to stir up the students interest in the program. Fr. Caughan's Basic Math continued the grade school studies. The Sophomore Geometry classes were informative as Miss Paolucci showed different aspects and qualities of the geometric shapes through the use of plastic models. Sr. Margaret's Algebra II and Senior Math Classes were closely related this year. Her techniques utilizing the overhead projector helped to bring to the students an understanding of the many rules and formulas of this science of numbers. GEOMETRY STUDENTS.. .studied connix in class as demonstrated by Bruce Driehorse and Paul Hajdin. FIGURINC OUT A COMPLICATED PROBLEM . . . are Freshmen Priscilla George. Tom St. John and Bill Soltesz.
