Ah yes, All that knowledge about 1950's African geography that is utterly 
useless today. I don't know how much longer it lasted but in my high 
school anyone aspiring to college took two years of Latin before choosing 
a modern language, German for engineers, French for the artsy crafty 
types. That was the public high school. The Catholic high school also 
taught Latin of course and we would argue about pronunciations.

I was fortunate. After the 'oh shit' moment when Sputnik was lost they 
ramped up science and math in grade school.
