If engineering education programs are to meet the increasing technological demands of society, it would follow that emphasis should be directed toward retention rather than attention of students. (Author/DF)

Since 98 percent of the students are not geology majors, they should be taught in a different manner. Course objectives for these students and methods of effective presentation of essential geological materials are discussed. (DF)

The purpose of this report is to publicize some worthwhile experiences enjoyed by the author in a small school with a limited budget. (DF)

Most knowledge of planetary atmospheres is gained through spectroscopic techniques. Information regarding what we know about several planets, particularly Jupiter, is presented. (DF)

A program designed for nonscience majors around two approaches: basic concept of modern physics and the physics of urban and environmental problems. The first semester was intended to familiarize students with the philosophy of physics and its relation to human thought; the second semester dealt with the impact of physics and technology on modern…

A treatment of exponential growth and decay is sketched which does not require knowledge of calculus, and hence, it can be applied to many cases in the biological and medical sciences. Some examples are bacterial growth, sterilization, clearance, and drug absorption. (DF)

A committee was established to better understand and define the physics programs in two-year colleges. Its first task was to select the following working topics: (1) communication and study of the two-year college physics programs and problems, (2) development of modules of instruction for nonscience majors, and (3) use of the computer as an…

The following items are discussed: Digital Counters and Readout Devices, Automatic Burette Outfits, Noise Exposure System, Helium-Cadmium Laser, New pH Buffers and Flip-Top Dispenser, Voltage Calibrator Transfer Standard, Photomicrographic Stereo Zoom Microscope, Portable pH Meter, Micromanipulators, The Snuffer, Electronic Top-Loading Balances,…

Reviews are presented which are designed for beginning undergraduates. The films are divided into two series: (1) Manipulation of Liquids and Solids, and (2) Chromatographic Separations and Spectorscopic Methods. Topics increase in complexity from one film to the next. (DF)

The continuation of a paper discussing chemical bonding from a bond energy viewpoint, with a number of examples of single and multiple bonds. (Part I appeared in volume 1 number 3, pages 16-23, February 1972.) (AL)
