In this class students are called upon weekly to teach some book of the Bible previously assigned by the teacher. Special emphasis is laid upon the teaching of popular Bible classes. The best methods of teaching are put into practice. Fifth and sixth term students only are eligible to this class. XIII. Psychology and Sociology T he best text book on psychology is the Bible. The Bible sets forth man as he really is, and not as speculative philoso phers imagine him to be. The study of psychology is pursued in many of the classes, and especially in the Personal Work course. Its aim is to give the student a thorough knowledge of man as he actually is by nature, as he is in hi s personal life, home life, social life, busi ness li fe, and moral and spiritual life, and as he may become by the grace of God in Jesus Chri st.
