With what remotely resembles military preci- sion, Mr. Firnhaber divides his class into buzz groups. John Lott Elliot Low David Luebbe Roosevelt Matthews Cherylyn Meyer DeLynna Miller Mr. Edgar Firnhaber feels a complete freedom in dealing with students and teachers this year. There is a lack of tension in the classroom and the faculty room that I have not experienced before. Teaching English and being Freshman Class sponsor makes him the special friend of the Freshmen. They are all individuals who structure themselves according to their own patterns of creativity. Recognizing their talent when it appears and channelling it into areas of creativity, he believes, will motivate students to do things for themselves. In natural surroundings, such as at a camp or retreat. Mr. Firnhaber feels most creative. The words creation js God ' s greatest gift to man are, to him, an understate- ment. Since God already has created everything, all we can do is to reinforce His pattern. Working with freshmen students enables him to say of the class. They are the most courteous, best motivated, most aggressive group that 1 have ever seen, with apologies to the many freshman classes I have taught before.

He lets us practice the three-legged race Creating knowledge in minds al- ready bogged down with extra curric- ular activities can frustrate both stu- dents and teachers. Instructors try to keep a steady pace or else slacken up while and catch up with a last- minute rush at the end of the quarter. Some Freshmen gave their opinions of classroom activity and the tactics teachers use: ike English. We can talk in it. He didn ' t give us a quiz yesterday because he forgot. Science and Geography are a re- view of eighth grade for me. My favorite class is probably P.E. Mine is Art. hate having to stand up in Cho- rus. And alphabetical seating.
