SCIENCE

AT LYCOMING

A LOOK BACK

TO SEE FORWARD

Lycoming College continually

tests the limits and makes

things happen. "Physics and

astronomy at Lycoming differ

from many other institutions

because of the emphasis on

lab-based instruction," states

Dr. David Fisher, professor

of physics. "It helps students

grasp theoretical concepts if

they can see them in practice

rather than just read about

them in a textbook.” After

graduation, Lycoming's

physics majors have followed

careers in industrial research,

secondary education,

development, or continued

their education in physics

or related areas at graduate

schools across the country.

PICTURED: “One of the new

courses being offered at

Williamsport Dickinson Junior

College this year (1941) is a

physics class, which entails two

laboratory periods each week.

Several thousands of dollars

worth of new equipment was

purchased in order to offer the

science course. Students are

pictured during a laboratory

session under the supervision of

Professor Joseph D. Babcock,

who teaches the class.”
