The most notable expeditions included trips to Washington D.C., the Botanical Gardens in St. Louis, and the Chicago Museum of Arts and Science, where students were able to view an actual coal mine in operation. Audio visual equipment played an increasing role in supplementing the instruction of students enrolled in science classes at all levels. Video tape systems, slide and filmstrip projections, as well as films, were used to give students a better understanding of what they were studying. According to James Schwengel, depart- ment chairman, Our society is becoming more technical and more dependent on scientific research in order to develop new sources of energy. Meeting this increasing need will only be possible through the involvement of more persons interested in solving our future technicological prob- lems. The finer points of Biology, as Mr. Bob Voegeli explains it, catches the attention of junior Laurie Betz.
