John F. Rauhauser, District Attorney, lectured to U. S. government classes Social Sciences To Relate Man ' s Past To His Future Addition of several new instructors, plus replace- ments for those instructors away on NDEA scholar- ships, brought sweeping changes to the Social Sci- ence Department this year. New ideas, new stimu- lation, and lots of reading assignments emphasized history from a practical and personal viewpoint. Structured book reports, visiting lecturers, and pop quizzes kept awareness at a high level among students and enabled them to glean new insights from their history and government courses.

Beahan , Registrar and Director of the Computer Center Business Administration Preparation For A Business-Oriented World The Business Administration Department is one of definite, immediate, and tangible ob- jectives — preparation of its students for employment in modern business situations. Its faculty teaches with encour- agement and objectivity, knowing that talent and abil- ity flourish under such condi- tions. About one-third of YJC ' s students participate in the five Business curricula. The courses offered in these cur- ricula are not highly special- ized and disciplined; they are general and highly practical. Frequent seminars and field trips this year brought stu- dents Into contact with ex- perienced professional busi- nessmen. Student uses card-sorter in Data Processing Center 23

With this object in mind, YJC ' s Language Departments seek to teach stu- dents the practical and aesthetic aspects of lan- guage. On Foreign Language Day, a lecture by William Turpin suggested that language study is Necessary But Not Enough. Every member of the English Department at- tended a workshop relative to the teaching of English — lecturers on Robert Frost, methods of freshman composition, and other experimental approaches.
