During the past year and this
summer, the English and social
studies facility has planned and
developed a new approach to
replace the traditional year
long courses.
(Students had much of the
r^qwnsibilHj for planning
the mini-course curriculum s.
Informal surveys of the types
of. courses the students were
interested in were tabulated
and the faculties then plan
ned a series of courses based
01S these requests in addition
to* topics essential for a full
caseation.
•
Twenty-four nine-week Eng
lish courses and eleven nine
wedk social studies courses will
be pffered. Some of the course
titles in English are: “Eve’s
ilsny Faces”, I Kant Spel”,
“Creative Writing”, and “Holly
wood Comes to R os man”. The
social studies courses will in
clude: “Kilroy Was Here”; “The
War That Isn’t A War", and
“When Knighthood Waa In
Flower”.
This new approach to Eng
lish and social studies offers
several advantages to the stu
dent. First of all, courses are
centered on student interests,
resulting in greater enthusi
asm for learning. The mini
courses in both English and
social studies have also been
grouped by ability level, with
students registering for a
block of four courses. Each
student was personally ad
vised during last spring's
registration so that he chose
the block of courses best suit
ed to his needs and interests.
The student who has diffi
culty within the traditional cur
riculum designed for the “aver
age” student will be working on

so the new curriculum will al

he or she feels most capable,
thus benefiting the students
with his or her special know

Complete coarse outlines
were developed this summer
by Mrs. Jane Williams of the
gosman High English faculty,
and by Mr. Lee PoweH and
James Howell of the social
studies faculty.
Mr. Larry Tucker, Supervisor
of English Instruction for North
Carolina, visited with Mrs. Wil
liams recently, and gave his full
support to Rosman’s program.
This fall, Bosnian will be

North Carolina using the
mini-course approach, and
visitors from across the State
are expected. Parents are in
vited to come in and observe
the new programs in opera

land came by chance, and for
thousands of yean tbereafter
agriculture progressed only
slowly out of the realm of
guesswork. Even In the early
days of this Nation, when we
were a people of farmers and
planters, the process of coax
ing life out of the earth re
mained far more an art than
a science. But today American
agriculture has become a ful
ly realized technology largely
subject to human planning ana
control — a bountiful producer
of food, clothing and tbe mak
ings of the good life for Amer
ica and the world.
Thus there is sharp irony
in the fact that this great in
dustry, so accomplished in the
scientific nurture of plant and
animal life, remains among the
industries in which human life
is most precarious and accident
rates are highest. The farm and
rapfh environment abounds in
potential hazards — powerful
machinery, exposed working
.conditions, physically demand
ing jobs — but experience has
shown that caution, common
sense, and protective equip
ment can do much to counter
them and keep accidents and
injuries to a minimum. All
who live and work on Ameri
ca’s farms and ranches owe it
to themselves, their families,
and the nation that depends on
them, to put safety first. Let
us set the goal of eliminating
