His studies also concerned him, because he was one of the honor graduates in May. He found time to act in the senior play and be a member of the Beta Club and FCA. In the fall, he will attend the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville and major in Business Administration.

Besides all the planning she did —plus the work — Kim wrote feature stories for the Hi-Times and was an invaluable staff member of the Dragon. She was chosen Maid-of-Honor in the Homecoming royalty, participated in the Senior play, and was selected FFA Sweetheart.
