Department of Mathematics i V £ It was during our two year hitch with the Math Department that we grounded ourselves in the tech- niques and principles we were later to need in our science courses. As we tried vainly to represent a hyper- boloid of two sheets on a paper of one sheet, we won- dered what it was all about. The daily routine of board work, question boards, front boards, drill prob- lems, and writs did more than teach us math. Slowly and painfully we began to improve our powers of logical analysis and reasoning. When the course was finally behind us, some of the techniques seemed to wash away with that ever present green chalk dust. But when, in later years, the principles were necessary; we somehow managed to bone them up more easily than before. Some of the more enthusiastic of our ranks sought a rematch First Class year in the form of an elective in Advanced Calculus. To some of the rest of us, it was enough that we had finally mastered the slip stick. ' Now the area under this curve.
