Government: Each year in the spring, elections are held to choose those four students who will compose the Student Organization. This important election on May 15, 1986 was by no means ordinary. The students who ran for the Presidency were Seniors Mike Cohn, Philip Pine, Nathaniel Silverthorne Jr., and Ted Winner. The candidates for the Executive Board were Jordan Bergstein, Abby Berman, Brooke Greenhouse. Suzanne Katz, Iris Lev. Rich Lobel. Eddie Markson and Mary Wynperle. As the final candidate, Ted Winner, was reading his speech. Assistant Principal Dr. Ruth Harrison interrupted so that the building could be evacuated because of a bomb scare. Elections were therefore held a few days later and resulted in the election of Philip Pine, Abby Berman. Iris Lev, and Richard Lobel (the only junior on the S.O.). Since that time, the S.O. has persisted in provid- ing innumerable services for the student body. With the adoption of monthly congress meetings, the Student Organization has managed to inform a lar- ger percentage of students of situations relevant to their concerns. The S.O. of the school year ’86-’87 has managed to set forth new policies which will hopefully improve school life. In mid-September, we elected three new delegates to the Board of Education. These delegates are essential to our governmental system in that they act as the bridge of communication between the Student Organization and the Great Neck Board of Education. They act as this “bridge” by reporting to the members of the S.O. about the issues taken up at the Board meetings which are held each month at South High School. The candidates were all juniors except for Fresh- man Lisa Khodadadian. The others were Ben Fink, Debbie Lewis, Peter Smith, and Thomas Youn. These students spoke at an S.O. Assembly and dis- cussed various issues and their plans to change several policies if elected. Unfortunately, because of a technical error with the voting booths, the election had to be held a second time on the following day. The three winners were Ben Fink, Debbie Lewis, and Thomas Youn, and the community school representative was Senior Brooke Greenhouse, elec- ted for a second term. Board delegates have respon- sibilities not only to the Board of Education but more importantly to the entire student body. Tying It All Together The Student Organization — Philip Pine. Iris Ixv, Kit h l »hel. and Abby Berman (inuigrlru) represent the rights of students at North. Delegates to the Board of Education. Thomas Youn.
