Lang. Group Largest Language Arts is the largest department in University and the most balanced between men, women faculty members, explained Mr. Carl Welch, Department Head. In the sophomore level, Language Arts emphasizes the paragraph and a variety of short stories and novels. The Junior level emphasizes the complete composition with American Literature courses. The senior level works on college term papers and essays with the expansion of World Literature, Shakespeare and Mythology. Th ree years ago the Language Arts department changed to an elective course, dropping requirements for the Senior level. This department is especially important to the college-bound student who uses a variety of writing skills necessary to succeed in college, Mr. Welch concluded. - K Q all Above: Mrs. Waters keeps a sharp eye on her Language class.
