pate and desire to understand. She sometimes fails to
grasp the broad significance of a problem because of over-
attention to an unexplained but trivial facet. She has a
noticeable tendency to preface remarks on an operational
question with an analogy from the field of the social
sciences. At times the analogy does not fit and the sub-
sequent operational remarks are rather far afield. In
general, her performance is good.
# Scores from pre-course test are included herein for all students.
If scores appear to be low, it should be said that they are the
results of an exploratory device meant to find the level of class
knowledge concerning the material to be covered during the Course
(CSI's, etc.). In this test, the class average was 51 out of a
111 possible score.
