The five-week program, emphasizing science and archaeology, has included many field trips for the pre-college group of 26 high school students. One parti- cular field trip led to the discovery that chiggers are , miserable companions for research. Designed primarily for rising senior high school students and sponsored by the National Science Foundation, the program is open to high school students with a demon- strated ability in science and or archaeology. After a week of indoctrination, stu- dents had the opportunity to pursue specialized study with one of two St. Andrews faculty members, Dr. Karen Barnes and Dr. David McLean, or Camp- bell College professor Dr. Bob Hope. Bob, son of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph M. Kerekes of Route 2, Dallas, chose to study ceramics and thermoluminescent dating of pottery under Dr. Barnes. It was not quite the frivo- lous topic some students first thought it would be be- fore Dr. Barnes explained the involved techniques of dating and cataloguing. “When you work with pottery you are intrigued by all aspects,” says Dr. * Pennsylvania Gas and Water Company has appointed an advisor to act for the utility in science and technical areas. David F. Hansen, PG&W president, said ‘Andrea Wargo Rood, of West Pittston, was recently named to the post and immediately assumed her new responsibilities. He said Ms. Rood will also make presentations to public groups Barnes, who has spent several years researching the area of thermolumine- scent dating. The study of pottery has involved field trips to the trestle site on the Pee Dee River and other areas in Scotland County, N.C., where pottery samples were collected. The samples were brought - back to the college, washed, catalogued and eventually dated. By examining the pot- tery through scientific techniques the students will learn about the Indian pottery industry of the area and their culture. Barnes says that this type of experiment design will carry over into any field. ‘The students will learn laboratory techniques and use equip- ment that most high school students don’t have the opportunity to use,” she continues. ‘And if they are really interested in ar- chaeology they will learn about recognizing the different types of pottery and begin to understand what you can learn about a culture from its pottery.” Lake and Elaine Kapson of Dallas.
