It was called Industrial Arts at my high school. Sophomore year it
consisted of wood shop. I made a bookshelf. It took all year. I remember
it wasn't very square. I think it earned a C grade. I had those shelves
for many years after. Junior year was all drafting. Only 2 juniors in
the class, myself and one other. All the rest freshmen. Didn't do so
good in that class either. Senior year was shop again. More BS than
anything else. Did learn about pinhole cameras though. This was in the
early '70's.
