Springfield Mall, with its many department stores, clothing stores, and specialty shops provided many employment opportunities. Even more jobs were made available due to the large number of shopping centers in the area. While the majority of student employees only worked to get a weekly paycheck, others were willing to volunteer. Though they didn't get paid, they did receive other benefits. Volunteer workers used the training, ex- perience, and skill development learned on the job to prepare for future occupations. The election year gave students an opportunity to distribute campaign literature, stuff envelopes, and take polls. No matter what reason students chose to become part of the work- ing world, most felt that the benefits of having a job made up for a missed football game or club meeting. Student Life 27

While in the same environment we were able to discover our similarities, dif- ferences, likes, and dislikes. Chance usually played a big role in the making friends. We rode the same bus, shared the same lunch shift, and we both hated Geometry! Throughout the year we learned together, played together, laughed together, and sometimes cried together. We explored new places, new interests, and new feelings. We helped each other solve the problems that every teenager faced; parents, dating, and that hard to answer question, “What will I become?” When one of us was happy, both of us were. The opposite was also true. In time, a bond grew and with that a mutual respect seen only in the closest of friendships.
