Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from 1964 Hillife
In Miss Wilkin's history classes one not only learns of past ages but also acquires experience in debate and research. Asking more from students than mere memoriza tion of facts, Miss Wilkin requires that they grasp the trends and forces which shape history. Her objective is to make her stu dents aware of the causes of historical events and of their effect upon' history in order that they may observe the relationship between the past and the present.
In addition to teaching, Miss Wilkin serves as the adviser to the National Honor Society. This year she was instrumental in organizing the Current Events Club, which features debate on modern problems. Last year, after regular school hours, Miss Wilkin taught world history to interested s enio rs even though the course was not offered in the curriculum at that time.
