Taking Up Time . . . The school day for many students at El Dorado, is a hectic, pressure filled experience. The whole day is spent trotting to and fro, from class to class. Then in each class the students are suddenly bombarded by a salvo of tests, and annoying pop quizes, given by teachers who think the most important thing in the world is their class! The torment does not end there, however, before stu- dents leave school they are plaqued by a torrential influx of homework assignments that teachers hurl at students from every side. It is readily understandable why home- work has always been a very unpopular after school activity to most students. The free time of practically everyone in school was taken up by this dreaded afflic- tion known as Homework. Mom, I am going to the library to study, is an over- used excuse, incorporated by many Seniors to get out of the house. Later the library became simply a much need- ed break from the drudgery of school and a time during which students could talk about the activities during the day. Most students used the library for the quiet atmo- sphere and accessible resources. This is what some Sen- iors had to say about homework- Kevin Larson - Totally uneccessary John Tobin - Homework?, What homework?!! Thomas Trerise - I am entirely oblivious to the social ramification of homework. Jeffrey Raskin - What a joke! Paul Soto - Some teachers think they are the only ones who assign homework, and don ' t have any consid- eration. Jamie Arnold - I like homework because it gives me something to do during commercials. Rick Gundzik - I enjoy doing homework so much I stay up all night doing it.
