. - Avid interest keeps electronics student Charlie Rohde experimenting with testing equipment even between classes and during semester breaks. Technical Training Vital for lndustry Drafting, architectural design, and Elec- tronics prepare students for careers in tech- nology, and technical training needed to fill the present-day gaps in industry. All phases of drafting are covered by the drafting program which prepares students for jobs in the construction field. It provides training in interpretation of building codes, writing specifications, surveying and layout of buildings, cost of estimating, and super- vision of construction. Architectural design is a technology which translates ideas, specifications, and calcula- tions of engineers, architects, and designers into complete and accurate drawings for future homes. .K wtt- Patience and healthy back muscles seem to be prerequisites for the study of drafting, as drafting major Bruce Queton demonstrates. N-.-1 Upon completion of the electronics tech- nology program, a student is qualified to work at a level between the degreed engineer and the skilled craftsman. fi, N S ye Us Deen, Wendell Hancock, Craig Chairman of Drafting .139 some lab study in his spare time.

Qu 'V- C' Before entering the math program, the stu- dent is urged to make a realistic evaluation of his mathematical background. He then may begin on one of three levels of instruc- tion. Developmental Math l is for the student who lacks the mathematical background re- quired for college level curriculum. Develop- mental Math ll is for the student who had some difficulty in the first year of high school math but did pass the course, or for the individual who has been out of school for several years. The third level, which is higher mathematics, is for the student having an ade- quate background and comprehension of math. College mathematics is the initial step in fulfilling degree requirements. The physics program begins with an intro- duction of the basic principles of physics. An explanation of physics, laboratory experi- ments and specialized problems are part of the students' initial course. The course serves as background for advanced courses for en- gineers and physics majors.
