MATH AND SCIENCE Because the world today puts a great deal of em- phasis on technology, the students found their math and science classes among their most interesting. Mr. Chase and Mr. Greenwell taught courses in physics and biology that have only been in use for two years. Laboratory work in the Senior Chemistry class Page eight

The flag parade at the Model U. N. assembly, attended by many History students Mr. Alan E. Dieffenbach, B.A., M.A.T. HISTORY By taking history for six years, a student may gain a perspective of what has gone on before him in his world. In seventh grade he takes geography and Utah history from Mr. Purdy. In eighth grade he takes ancient history from Mr. Woolley. Ninth and tenth graders study respectively medieval and modern history from Mr. Dieffenbach. Juniors take American history from Mr. Purdy; Sen- iors take world government from Mr. Dieffenbach. Students find such study valuable because they may apply lessons pointed out by history to situations presented by the world of today. Page seven

Work in the Language Lab supplements foreign language study LANGUAGE By Studying a language other than his own, a student gains a knowledge of the ideas of men in other cultures. In acquiring this knowledge, he also gains a cosmopolitan attitude toward his world which is far preferable to an attitude of provincialism and isolation. The language laboratory, a fairly new addition at St. Mark’s, is a valuable teaching and learning aid. In the lab the student hears the language spoken, aiding him in his pronunciation and teaching him speech patterns of the language. Miss Marian Robertson, B.A., M.A., Ph.D. Mr. Donald A. W. Sheffield, B.A., M.A. Mr. John F. Woolley, Jr., A.B. Page nine
