The objectives of the courses in biology are as fol- lows: to teach the various biolog- ical phenomena in conformity with the aims and objectives of the college,- to prepare students for the specific profession which they intend to enter,- to teach the general facts about the plant and animal kingdoms,- to stimulate in- terest in the field of biology,- and to teach the structure, function, and care of the human body. Mr. Daniel Bardarik has this year been added to the staff of the Biology Department. This division also gives rise to an athletic program for men and women. With the addition of a tri- view mirror for the Body Me- chanics and Conditioning classes in the Physical Education Depart- ment, the development of more efficient teaching techniques has been aided. CHECKING HER LUNG capacity, Barbara Bradle tries to set an all-time record. Page 24

Languages-Literature . . . Essentials of Education Every Wartburg studenl has at some lime or another come in con- tact with the Division of Lan- guages and Literature. As a fresh- man, each student begins with communication skills. As he climbs the ladder of education, he branches out. Perhaps he will go into the more advanced courses in English. He may study poetry, the essay, drama, the novel, biog- raphy, or short story. One of the newest additions to this depart- ment is Dr. Edwin Sandberg ' s course in the literature of the American Indian. Heading the Division of Lan- guages and Literature is Dr. G. J. Neumann, who is giving his forty- ninth year of service to Wartburg. With the growth of the college, the English Department has added one member to its teaching staff this year. However, both Dr. Manoocher Aryanpur and Miss Marilyn Lundell are new in the department, one being a replace- ment for Dr. E. K. Tiempo, who re- turned to his position at Silliman University in the Philippines. New on the faculty roster in the division this year is Mr. Raymond Harms, instructing Greek during the absence of Dr. A. E. Haefner, on leave to teach and to do re- search at the University of Michi- gan, Ann Arbor. Teaching under the Interna- tional Educational Exchange Pro- gram of the Fulbright Act is Dr. Wolfgang Wessling of Berlin, Germany. Dr. Wessling is in- structing German here as an ex- change for Dr. Katherine Love, now teaching in West Berlin. MANOOCHER ARYANPUR English ,• Tehran U., B.A.,- Colorado U., M.A., PhD.

Social Sciences . . . Relation of Many Fields Under the auspices of Dr. Ger- hard Ottersberg, Ihe interrelation of the fields of the Social Sciences is ably taught. Not only is the re- lationship of family and home studied, but also economics, busi- ness administration, political science, and history. These fields of study intertwine and better equip the student to appreciate the world and the society in which he lives. These studies also en- able him to be a part of the vast relationship of the Social Sciences. This year a part-time instructor of accounting was again added to the Department of Business Ad- ministration in the person of Mr. Donald Martens, Waverly certi- fied public accountant. Every student who comes to Wartburg will at some time or other come into contact with one or more phases of the social sciences. Many will choose his- tory, sociology, business, or home economics as their major field. The social science division sends students into many different walks of life. Some teach, and others go into the business world. AUGUST BAETKE Sociology,- Wartburg College, B.A.; Wartburg Seminary,- Chicago U., A.M. G.
