Global Studies required for Class of 1988 Global Studies became a require- ment for graduation for the class of ‘88. The class was designed to make the student aware of the world around him, and of the geographical, social and political influences that caused the problems in today’s world.

The state universities further com- plicated the requirement by accept- ing only biology, chemistry and physics as courses meeting their requirements for admission. Global Studies teacher Mr. Shannon Radford explains the similarity between a US geographical location and one in a foreign country to Sopho- mores Chris Bergan, David McNabb and Mark Sauer. Freshmen James Pauley and Steve Tantana com- pare reactions and make notes of what they see during a lab experiment in a science class. Junior Gina Medina can’t seem to believe what has happened to her experiment in a science class. 50 - Academics

There was an entire sub-cul ture of skateboard enthusiasts who used the slippery boards to get most places they had to be. Bicycles have always been a One of the conveniences of a skate- board is not having to hunt for a park- ing place. mainstay of teenage transpor- tation and it was no different here. The bike racks were full most days, even when it rained. And, of course, if you lived close enough to where you want- ed to go, there was always walk- ing. Mom and Dad said it was healthy but your friends knew it was Yucky! For dates, a car was an abso- lute necessity. There was no other way unless you wanted your parents to drive you. And who wanted Mom or Dad to drive you to Coronaton? Junior Chris Dickens thinks about the test he has coming up first hour as he cycles slowly to school in the morning. Junior Jim Mahoney has no trouble finding a space to park his bicycle. 52 - Student Lite
