Four years ago, Odessa College’s biology department was the fourth largest at the school. It is now the largest, thanks to the demand for health care workers in the area. During the past five years, the biology department has grown by 42 percent and online biology courses by 190 percent, biology professor Chet Cooper said. The subject’s popularity also could be due to the enthusiasm of the department’s professors who go in and out of each other’s offices and will even let other professors observe them in class and give them a chance to teach for a few minutes in each other’s classes, Cooper said.
