Sophomores Travel To Self Improvement SOPHUMCRE TRAIL BLAZERS Sophomore class officers for fall semester demonstrated the quali- ties that make up an efficient stu- dent government. While keeping their priorities straight, the sopho- mores forged ahead to make new reforms for governing those they represented. Traveling to Fremont, the offi- cers viewed another student coun- cil which they regarded to be an excellent role model. They also re- ceived aid from the junior class, and worked with them on projects. Record selling was one of the undertakings of the sophomores. With the freshmen they built floats together for homecoming. President, Marc Bernstein, noted about the sophomore stu- dent council, The individuals are motivated and the potential is there. The government runs well, and we like to think in terms of quality instead of quantity. Making the Sophomores think and come to their own conclu- sions, Advisor Mr. Hill helped show weak spots in the class gov- ernment and gave suggestions on how to strengthen them. Getting better and better every day, the sophomore student coun- cil blazed a clear, productive trail during the fall semester and im- proved themselves as they did so. Sophomore Class Officers: Kristl Co- pland, Secretaryg Colleen Kreidel, Trea- surer, Catherine Crosby, Vice-President, Marc Bernstein, President Delegates: Deborah Jang, Tiffany Carr, Shawn Holm, Amy Sueyoshi President Marc Bernstein sleep-talks to his cabinet members on occasion. 206 f Fall Officers

We The People. . TO BE OR OT TO BE Would the sophomore class spring government be a success? Of course, the officers proved to be energetic and ready to work for the people, by the people, and with the people. This morale in itself made them a success. Not only did the sophomore class benefit from council activi- ties, but the entire student body also did. One of the main objec- tives of the government was to raise money for future activities such as the prom. Thus, they orga- nized fundraisers such as a candy sale, dance, and buzz book sale. The previous two not only served as money makers, but involved student interaction. Though the dance seemed the most obvious to involve student interaction, the buzz books were designed to help students keep in touch, especially over the summer. The officers also worked for more student involvement in gov- ernment activities. Anyone was welcome to attend their meetings with suggestions or complaints. In- stead of the same people involved over and over again, they wanted a diversity of people. We're striv- ing to promote unity within our class as well as school spirit, stat- ed Delegate,ShannonGallagher. Undoubtedly, the sophomore class spring government proved to be a success. Dedication and the will to put forth many hours helped the officers make school a better place to be for everyone. Wai .
