Taking a foreign language is a good and helpful experience. -Lisa Plummer Different Way to Learn Enriches Students Kathy Young ' s Spanish V students. Kristin Fitzpa- trick. and Kevin Mylod. listen while she shows them how to work with some Spanish present tense verbs. by S Dixon and A. Trees Was the new eight hour day getting hard to bear? Why not break a strict academic schedule with an elective? Apparently, a number of students decided to do just that. Foreign languages, especially, benefited from the additional class period, as 62% of Seaholm ' s stu- dents enrolled in not only the basic French and Spanish courses, but in German and Latin classes as well. A survey of students revealed that taking a foreign language was beneficial and interesting. Jennifer Jacoby. a French 11 student noted. 1 enjoy taking a foreign language. 1 not only learn the language, but I learn about the culture, which is very interesting because it is so different from ours. Even though a language course is an elective, it nevertheless involves consider- able preparation and study. To learn the language, a lot of self discipline and patience is necessary, said Kelly Cronin, a Spanish II student. Many colleges now require a language for entrance, so the increasing trend of student interest and participation will, undoubtedly, continue. Next year. Sea- holm plans to offer a course to learn the Japanese language - further evidence that taking a second language was not just a passing fad. Through knowledge of a foreign language, one is able to understand some of the workings of foreign minds. The ability to communicate with people in foreign countries brings us closer to under- standing their mores. The means of travel have helped us realize that we can no longer be content to speak just one language. ■ , !}rst hour.

Washburn Getting paid for earning high school credit? It seems incredi- ble, but true. Co-op and SEO- VEC are two different educa- tional programs that enable a student to explore future career possibilities. Co-op students not only receive on the job training, but a paycheck for their work. Co-op, or Cooperative Education, is a work experience program open to all seniors which may help them to choose a career major. These students earn a total of two credits and receive minimum wage. Some businesses which participate in the Co-op program are Jacobsons, The Varsity Shop, Machus Red Fox, and The Campus Shop. A benefit of Co-op for some students is that it may lead to permanent work after graduation. The Southeast Oakland Vocational Education Center, or SEOVEC, is another valuable work experience program offered to mainly juniors and seniors. SEOVEC serves a total of twenty-three schools, and offers twenty-six different fields. Students who participate in the SEOVEC program gain three credits per year. Students may take SEOVEC to help them learn more about a possible career major. Senior Gabi Dubois said, SEOVEC is a fun, worthwhile experience, and I ' ve learned a lot. When asked what she ' d gained from the program, senior Tina Schumaker said, I ' ve learned about responsibilities.
