More Class Variety ffered m,,,.,,..nav T X . I ,, .,,: ,W 1 -,,,,,,.,---- 't 'W ' Classes offered during the l977-I978 school year were much the same as the preceding year with three exceptions: girls' basketball. soccer. and a Current World Affairs Class. Trinity's expand- ing variety of courses has always offered the students a limitless way in which to construct their schedules. and now with these additional choices. the selection is even greater. The new girls' basketball, soccer. and social studies class are considered a definite asset to Trinity's curriculum. Girls' basketball evolved from the strong desire of female stu- dents to have such an elective. The basketball coach, Ms. Pat Quin- lan, was employed and the class came into existence. There were approximately 26 girls involved. with the varsity andjunior varsity each numbering 13. For the first time the girls were given the oppor- tunity to play this skillful game as a class elective. whereas a year before this was impossible. Mr. Murray is given credit for getting soccer at Trinity. Hal Shelly was employed as the coach and it was his enthusiasm that swung the sport into action. Soccer was offered to both boys and girls, and the participants numbered many. The competition was good and the enjoyment of the sport was great. The Current World Affairs Class was added to the social studies department in an effort to resurrect such classes that had once been offered. The class dealt mainly with foreign policies and topics such as the Middle East Crises. The class was open to Juniors and Sen- iors as an alternative to the usual choices. lf plans work out, there will be even more new social studies classes offered in the future. STUDENT ACTION X 163
