Civics, a study of federal, state and local gov- ernments, remained a required course for ninth graders. Minority history, a semester course was de- signed for juniors and seniors.

It has also enabled me to see the problems which other people are faced with. Western civilization students traced the de- velopment of modern culture from the early Hellenistic age to the twentieth century nuclear age. . .e ut- lf- : , . j i M...-. 1a.,..
