NATURAL SCIENCE Science courses aid in understanding the students . unrverse In this world of atom bombs, guided missiles, and man-made satellites, the Department of Physical Science assumes a greater importance. Here we learn not to take the world around us for granted but to see in each cloud and each stone an object of special importance tha t obeys the many natural laws of the universe. We try to understand these laws so we may more fully aj>- preciate the phenomena we observe around us each day. Dr. Joseph Pryor is serving double duty this year as chairman of the Department of Physical Science and Dea n of the College. New in the departmen t a re Don England in ch emistry, William Rushton in biology, and James Roberts in physics and mathema tics.
