Although there is no missile landing site on the SJA campus, many young minds are being launched into the worlds of math and science so necessary understanding in this space age. Basic formulas are learned in freshman algebra while sopho¬ more geometry adds understand¬ ing of angles, arcs, and logical reasoning. Biology provides the scientific information to complete these basic courses. Advanced math, through the introduction of the set concept, broadens the SJAers understand¬ ing of the structure and function of mathematics. Upperclassmen additional insight through and chemistry, completing these courses at SJA knows she is well-equipped for her role in the future. 1- 4 ’■1 d i Wa 5 ■Jr A ' ' BUILDING NESTS ... is for the birds ' exclaims Margie Schwartz as she examines a biology lab experiment.
