Here hills and vales, the woodland and the plain,
Here earth and water seem to strive again,
Not chaos-like together crushed and bruised,
But, as the world, harmoniously confused:
Where order in variety we see,
And where, though all things differ, all agree.
ALEXANDER POPE, Windsor Forest (1713)

The beauty of nature lies in its logic as well as appearance. Scientists delight in that logic: the net unbalanced force acting on a mass will give it an acceleration; the shape of a raindrop is spherical, to minimize the area of its surface. Scientists studying natural sciences study nature from both the biological and the physical aspects. West Shore Community College offers both types of science courses that are listed below..
