QUIET AT LAST Taking advantage of on empty class room. Chris Hayward seem- ingly concentrates on some home- work that is due the next hour. Judging from his smug look, though he is writing anything but home- work. English Midterm: (mid-tern) Half way through the torture of the term; time when the countdown begins for va- cations. It occasionally means that students have to take a lest over the past material. The best excuse I've given a teacher for not coming to class is that I didn't know we had school today, because I thougth it was a holi- day. -James Johnston, senior. UP FRONT Trudy Badgett wasn't an ac- celarated English student, but she was one who was hard working. She has re- cieved praise and good grades for her work. I've never enjoyed English until I had Mrs. Fagan as a teacher. She helped me learn. DAYDREAMER With three more minutes left in the hour. Llesel Carland anxiously waits for the be» to ring so she can eat lunch with her friends. Naptime: (nap-time) Time when students catch up on needed sleep, be- cause of the previous night’s rendezvous. An- other reason why students fall asleep is because they forgot to take their NoDoz that morning. In Mr. Schlemmer’s class you don’t get to have naptime.

PLUS NOT ALL AT ONCE. Anxious students require Mrs. Tro- mel's odvice on a project they ore doing Simon Navarro and Isrel Tor- ros aren't so happy with the rewrite they! have to do. t's BASICS English doesn't always mean diagramming sen- tences ond doing book re- ports. With writing and Rtera- ture classes that challenged the student's mind, each stu- dents writing and reading abilities were met by individ- ual classes. Teachers stressed the basics while be- ing creative at the same time. I believe English teachers take the time to help each individual that comes forward with ques- tions, stated Yvonne Aram- bula. The creative writing class added publication of a liter- ary magazine, FiHigree and Shadows. The class took over a club from last year, so that the magazine could have a more polished look. This was one of the many changes that took place this year in the department. Having classes that were more than the basic gram- mar, drew students to taking more than the required amount of classes.
