Media Center Acquires New Equipment The Media Center was used more this year by the students for composition, projects, research, and recreational read- ing. The equipment that helped students understand more about a subject that they were learning was primarily movie projectors. Also, the amount of equip- ment was always increasing in the media center to meet the needs of the students and the faculty. The faculty and the stu- dents that worked in the media center did most of the school filming, video taping, and photographing of academics and sports. This year a radio station was in- stalled and the students thoroughly en- joyed making it operational. I kb. Marion Messervey Librarian Faculty l5 l
