13 Qualified Teachers and 12 Courses: Science Department

Page 27 text:

RANDALL HORSEMAN DONALD LaBORNE GEORGE KERIVANSR. For many students, the periods spent in math on the second floor of the wing brought back vivid memories. Whether they listened, learned and passed, or they yawned, daydreamed, and failed, the math courses they selected prepared them well for further stud¬ ies. The majority of courses offered were col¬ lege-oriented (Geometry, Algebra II, Trigo¬ nometry, and Calculus) and a new course. Algebra 12, offered a full year of elementary algebra to provide a good, basic foundation for further preparatory study. For the second year, two intriguing elec¬ tives enhanced the curriculum. Probability and Statistics, with Matrix Algebra, allowed students to gain a greater understanding of these specific areas of mathematics. Meeting twice a week for an entire year, either course could be taken alone or concurrently with another math major. Students were shown the structure, logic, and creativity of the subject, and the math teachers aimed to point out relevance and application to other matters whenever possi¬ ble. The strength of the department was in ' ' the professionalism, dedication, and mathe¬ matical background of a staff which enhanced the program’s goals.” Only two out of fourteen of this well-qualified staff were women, one of whom, Mrs. Allen, was on a pregnancy leave during the second semester.

FRANCIS MEAR EDWARD HEREIN LAURA WICK Dissecting frogs, balancing equa¬ tions, growing bacteria, and measuring velocity were all a part of the intensive courses offered by the Science Depart¬ ment. Science is the study of the expla¬ nation of life, and in this respect, the subject matter is broad and encompas¬ ses many areas. As well as the tradi¬ tional lab sciences (biology, chemistry, physics) a semester course, psychology, dealt with human behavior, Freudian concepts, moral and ethical reasoning, and counselling skills. A committed staff with excellent background in var¬ ious aspects of science, including new¬ comers Laura Wick and Peter Rossetti, endeavored to give students an under¬ standing of the basic concepts of sci¬ ence and an awareness of its impact on their everyday lives 25
