Colle e tour provl leep was needed. Feet were tired. Homework was neglected. Friendship were made. Laughs were frequent. Stanford was Stanford. College tour was here! On February 24, forty-one juniors filed into a Greyhound bus for a four day trip to nine colleges in California. Visiting various campuses of Cal State, LIC, and private schools, students received information about admission requirements, financial aid, and student life. Viewing the campuses directly helped students choose a college. Junior Leila Martinez expressed, By the end of the trip, everyone had an idea where they wanted to go. Though the tour focused on colleges, students enjoyed many of the recreational activities as well. Participants toured Old Town in Sacramento and Fisherman's Wharf in San Franciso. Also, during the long bus rides card games, walkmans, and even a game of charades created a busload of fun as remembered by junior Shireen Amidi. Junior .Jan Sakonju reflected, The college tour was a blast and a family affair with your classmates. You really got to know the people. By actually living together for four days, most students developed many new friendships and lasting memories. With tired sighs, many students dreamed of college life on the flight home from San Jose. After taking a poll, most students agreed that Stanford was the ultimate university, while LIOP, with its New England setting, appeared more realistic.

No, it was the scene of the Junior Dance that was held in our own girl's gym. Since the Civic was booked by another school and Clark no longer held school dances, the junior class had to find a new location for the activity. Since there was little overhead cost, more money could be spent on decorations. The dark crepe paper, silver balloons, and paper stars that decorated the gym was tied into the theme, Bring on the Night. Junior Michele Sullivan commented, l felt like I was walking into a movie.
