Nerds Dominate Spirit Week Monday, October 14, kicked off the fifth annual Spirit Week. This day was Nerd Day. The students had the opportunity to dress as nerds. They wore colors that clashed, unmatched socks, plaids that didn’t match, bell bottoms, shirts that were too small, shirts with large pointed collars, clogs, and sandals with socks. They wore Grandma’s reading glasses on the ends of their noses, covered themselves with band-aids, and stuck calculators and pens in their shirt pockets. The most popular day was College Day. Students donned sweatshirts with their favorite colleges printed on them. Michigan State and the University of Michigan were the colleges seen the most. Another popular day was Hat and Shades Day. Cowboy hats, shower caps, baseball caps, Mickey Mouse ears, hard hats, and baseball caps with animals on the front were worn by students. Sunglasses ranged from punk to 50’s style. Senior Pride Day Underclass Sweats Day was Thursday, Oct. 17. Seniors showed their pride and spirit by dressing up in their best dresses and suits. Underclassmen wore their most comfortable sweats, new or old. In honor of the Homecoming football game, Friday was Black and White Day. Many dressed in the school’s colors and bought spirit towels. The Homecoming Dance followed the football game. Ann and Susan Kitchen 7
