Social Studies The Social Studies Department, under the leadership of Mr. Wil- liam Davis, has seen a year of growth and change. Added to the pro- gram was Ecology, a semester course dealing with the environmental sciences and mans ' co-operation with his world. Sociology, another popular semester course taught by Mr. Beur- man, engaged such cultural and authoritative speakers and groups as: Mrs. Louise Day Hicks, Joe Moakley, Hare Krishna, and the cho- rus from Godspell. A sneak preview shows a new offering on next year ' s horizon. Mr. Stack will teach an Introduction to Anthropology course which will deal with the social and cultural patterns of a few past civilizations, but mainly with the behavioral and cultural patterns of some existing primitive tribes.
