Social Studies... Humanities... Science... Students in Division III spend their time exploring the fields of history, psychology, political science, and economics. Favorite topics of discussion among Division III majors are Free Trade and Revolution. No important decisions are made by these men without consulting the leviathan. Courses in English, literature, speech, philosophy, religion, and foreign languages are offered to majors in Division Il. Thus the entire campus is embraced by the influences of Division I[—from the somber depths of the basement of Chapel, to the resonant rafters of third floor Center Hall. Division I majors spend their time pursuing the dark secrets housed in the temple of science. The catacombs of biology, mathe- matics, physics, chemistry, botany, and zoology vie for attention. Stu- dents enrolled in this division are recognizable by a blank stare, ob- structed only by their thick glasses, and a slide rule which hangs from the belt.
