Problems - Local and Global, Past and Present If social studies help students to make wise and intelligent adjustments to their environ- ment, and especially if they assist in preparing young people for responsible American citizen- ship, then they stand high on the list of edu- cational priorities. In ancient Rome and in Washington, D.C., each the capital of the world in its own era, significant events have occurred which have shaped the history of man. Thus, to successfully plan for the future, it is necessary to become acquainted with the his- tory-making news of the past and present. As tomorrow's citizens, today's history students are constantly exploring the facts of yesteryear tot help them anticipate the problems of the u ure. While studying history, the student achieves a sense of brotherhood with his ancestors who lived centuries ago. World history traces the progress of man from his primitive stages to his modern day triumph. Understanding the high points of past international affairs is a main concern. United States history helps us to develop a genuine appreciation of our heritage of free- dom and to acquire an understanding of con- flicts, compromises, and major decisions which have shaped this country's history. In American Problems students study differ- ent facets of our economic system and learn of the many problems today's Americans must face.
