The Summer Neoraskan
ciniDeve
Summertime, for many
high schoolers, has meant
"spending an entire day doing
nothing."
However, for some 660 high
campus summertime has be
come a time for cultural and
educational enrichment.
These 660 high schoolers,
which do not involve the 450
All-Staters, are Involved with
the summer school program
at University High School.
Two-Fold Purpose
According to Dr. Alan T.
Seagren, principal of Univer
sity High School, the summer
school program at the mgn
school serves a two-toia pur
Dose. He explained that the
program gives high sc h 0 o 1
students the opportunity to
enrich their educational bacfc
grounds or to "catch-up" on
school work wnicn tney may
have missed.
The second purpose of the
summer school program Is to
offer University students in
education a summer supple,
ment to their regular educa
tion seauence on campus, Sea
gren said. He added that 48
University students are en
rolled as student teachers at
University High School.
These 48 student teachers
are responsible for the class
room instruction of a total of
36 separate courses offered at
the Universlty-c o n n e c t e d
school. Forty-six sessions of
classes are devoted to t h e
high school summer school
program.
Student Teachers
Seagren explained that the
purposes of the student teach
ers are to become acquainted
with a classroom situation
and to experiment with teach
ing mehods which were stud
ied in a previous methods
course.
-The student teachers are
being supervised by an addi
tional 15 teaching supervisors.
These supervisors, all pre
vious secondary instructors,
advise and evaluate the ap
proaches and methods em
ployed by the student teach
crs. Visiting Supervisors
Many of the summer super
visors are visiting from other
public schools. Tom Selwold
from Omaha Westside is con
ducting a demonstration in
economics which is being
observed by participants of
the Summer Seminar In Eco
nomic Education.
Tom Keene, an instructor
at Lincoln Southeast, is act
ing as chairman of the Uni
versity High School history
department for the summer.
Mrs. Ercle Ramey of the
Oregon school systems is su
pervising senior high reading
clases while Mrs. Mary Stall
of Culler Junior High School
in Lincoln is supervising the
junior high school reading
classes.
Other visiting supervisors
include Lloyd George, of Ful
lerton; Robert H. Johnson, of
Dawes Junior High School in
Lincoln; Norbert Schuerman,
former Vice-principal at Lin
coln Northeast; and Don Dah
lin, assistant - principal at
Grand Island Senior High
School.
Learning Experience
While the summer session
at University High School is
a learning experience for Uni
versity students, It is also a
learning experience for the
high school students enrolled
in the summer program.
Greene Regains
Track Crown
Husker trackman Charlie
Greene retained his cham
pionship title for the 100-yard
dash last week in the NCAA

Seagren explained that one
half of the high school courses
being offered are remedial in
nature and the other one-half
of the courses are intended for
enrichment.
He said that basic courses,
such as English, history, and
science are offered primarily
as a remedial study in which
the participants are able to
gain improvement over re
lated courses which were
taken during the regular
school year.
Additional Time
However, he indicated that
many students are enrolled in
the basic subject-matter cour
ses in order to complete them
before the coming regular
term. Reasons for this type
of enrollment, he said, are for
the students to have addition
al time during the school year
to participate in the elective
courses, such as typing, home
economics, journalism, and
debate, that are offered.
Seagren said that Univer
sity High School is the only
Lincoln school offering see
ondary school summer cour
ses. Other schools, he added
are offering short courses In
driving education and music
classes.
University High offers both
junior high and high school
instruction. However, Seagren
explained, 23 of the enroll
ment number are registered
for senior high school courses
Seagren said, "University
High School enrollment
reached a plateau two or
three years ago and has con
tinued at that rate since."
Enrichment Classes
Interest in the enrichment
courses led many of the sen
lor high school students to
enroll in economics, art, and
speech classes. Junior high
enrichment courses have seen
a large enrollment in typing,
dramatics, and art.
Journal
Honors
Doctor
The June Issue of the Ne
braska State Medical Journal
is dedicated to Dr. Leon Mc
Googan, Omaha physician
and professor at the Univer
sity of Nebraska College of
Medicine.
The dedication was made at
the request of the department
of obstetrics and gynecology
at the College of Medicine. An
editorial in the Journal states,
"It was the desire of mem
bers of the department of ob
stetrics and gynecology to
honor the man who has ac
complished so much, who has
worked so hard, and who as
claimed their affection."
Dr. McGoogan was born in
Lincoln, Neb., and received
his B.A. from the University
of Nebraska. He earned his
M.D. at the University
of Pennsylvania. Dr. McGoog
an has been associated with
the College of Medicine for
33 years. He began his ser
vice as an instructor of ob
stetrics and gynecology in
1931, became a professor in
March of 1951, was promoted
to acting chairman in Sep
tember, 1951 and was selected
as chairman of the depart
ment in July, 1953.
Dr. McGoogqn's honorary
societies include Phi Beta
Kappa and Alpha Omega Al-
Eha and he also holds mem
erships in several medical
societies. His present hospi
tal affiliations Include: active
staff of University and Im
manuel Deaconess; consult
ant at Nebraska Methodist,
tmidrens and Lutheran; and
courtesy at Clarkion. In ad
dition, he hat continually
been concerned with the de
velopment of the University,
particularly the Medical Col
lege Library.
All scientific articles In
cluded in the June issue of the
Journal were written by facul
ty members of the obstetrics
and gynecology department.
During September, Dr. Mc
Googan will serve as chief of
staff of obstetrics and gyne
cology at the Kapiolanl hospi
tal in Honolulu.

This year a junior high cul
tural learnings course has
been included, Seagren said.
"This humanities course looks
at the various cultures and
ethnic groups in existence,"
he explained.
Students in the cultural
learning course are studying
me cultures through planned
item trips, textbook reading,
ana outside readings.
Another enrichment course
being given at University High
is a developmental reading
ciass wnicn aims at both in
creasing the student's read
ing speed as well as ehhanc
ing reading comprehension.
Such a course is not ordinarily
offered during the regular
school term, Seagren said.
Supplementary Course
He also said that a supple
mentary courses in conversa
tional French and conversa
tional Spanish are being
taught. These courses, too, are
not part of the normal study
sequence in the educational
program but serve to strength
en the students' cultural di
mension. He said that students en
roll in the conversational lan
guage courses as either an in
troduction to a language or
as a practical application of a
language they have already
begun in the regular school
term.

While most students have
gone home for the summer, a

The ingenuity of the high
school mind was put to u s e
when the All-Staters first saw
the bright red and white
sweatshirts worn by the All
State band in the Nebraska
land parade last week.
Students in art, speech and
journalism decided to adopt
the sweatshirts as their casu

if the geological sequences
are at all similar between the
two sites.
