SOPHOMORES Debate Requirements Although college entrance re- quirements remain unchanged, there has been considerable de- bate in the legislature about the requirements. At this time re- quirements stand at two years each of a foreign language, upper math, and lab sciences, four years of English, three years of social sciences, and a half year each of computer and fine arts. High- more's sophomores fulfilled some of the prerequisites by taking bi- ology, English II, a math, and world history, if not taken as a freshman. Maintaining 19 students in the class for the second straight year, the sophomores were led by Jeff Selchert, president; Tork Cowan, vice president: Doug Hinkle, sec- retary; Chad Eldeen, treasurer; Jackie Neuharth and Dan Lusk, Student Council representatives. At mid-year Sheri Dugan left the class to move to Minneapolis and Deb Byrum joined the class. The positions of sophomore class advi- sors were held by Mrs. Wanda Ja- mieson, Mr. Mark Hasz, and Miss Robin Boiler.

Class Has Duties At End Of The Year Nearing the end of the year, it became the time for sophomores to be elected waiters and wait- resses for the Junior-Senior Prom. Due to the lack of girls in the class, there were only 12 waitresses and waiters chosen. Because there were only six girls in the class, all served as waitresses. The girls were Jackie Neuharth, Jenny Ne- mee, Jill Pekarek, Heather Van- DenBerg, Becky Nemec and Deb Byrum. Waiters elected were Darin Larson, Kip Baloun, Jeff Sel- chert, Dan Lusk, Jon Vilhauer, and Chad Eldeen. Graduation decorations were a task that the sophomores were re- sponsible for. The class cooperat- ed to cut out letters and decorate the front of the stage, podium, and diploma table. Since the motto the seniors selected was rather lengthy, it was placed on the east wall instead of the stage.
