In Search of the Mighty GPA There is a basic goal for each student at Saint Mary ' s - - to graduate. For some this is not so easy. We must not only attend classes but study, frequent the library, and cram for that all im- portant final exam. We do whatever we have to in search of that mighty GPA. One of the outstanding majors offered here is that of Biology. The environment is conducive to this field of study, with the St. Mary ' s River, the pond, and the swamp, Peepersburg. It is usually the Biology majors seen wading hip- deep in the marsh for specimens. Biology, how- ever, is only one of the many areas of study. Others include: Social Science, English, Natural Science, English, History and Art. Being a liberal arts college, St. Mary ' s students are required to take courses in practically every area of study. Thus, the classes have a variety of students. Because the school is such a convenient size, one may get to know just about every student on campus. The small class size eliminates anomosity between teachers and students. The teachers are easily accessible, and many times are seen socializing with the students.
