Adams ' athletic director, Mike DeVault began his career in one of the most presti- gious spots, athletic director. I wouldn ' t have accepted this job at any other school. The reputation at Adams of academics and athletics, is, in my mind, unmatched. I feel both honored and chal- lenged.

Senior, Amy Richards, commented, compared to last year ' s lab, there is more room and much more organization. As a result students showed more interest in the field of pho- tography and more students also enrolled in the class. The photography lab should now add a new dimension to the academic program at J.
