I 4fSmoking Did new smoking rules cramp your style? There was no more sneaking to the restroom or the bus area outside because the new location of the smoking area near the portables. Students met in a marked off area. It was like a private smoking lounge. School authorities said the smoking area near the buses caused a fire hazard. But Mr. Harold Newsome, assistant principal, said without the smoking area there would be more vandalism, and more suspensions for smoking in unauthorized areas. He thought having a time and a place to smoke would cut down on class cuts. The students adjusted to the new area, and tardies to class were at a minimum. Thelma Palmer said, The smoking area gives me freedom. I feel more comfortable being around ones who smoke. Tina Phelps stated, If I didnlt have the smoking area, I would go back to smoking in the restrooms. The faculty thought smoking problems had been solved. Vandalism and smoking in the restroom decreased. Benita Killingsworth To Smoke Or ot To Smoke That I Th Questlon YE es ni J sf dw I ff! i ffffflg P if tt sas, 3 s sg , sgtfzf wt- st S Cooling off!

Dress This school is like one big fashion show , stated Wendy Shaw when she was asked how she felt about fashions at Mauldin. She went further to explain, The halls are like a stage and the students dress as if they are putting on a performance. Many students noticed a real change in the way students dressed this year. Basically everyone dressed the way they wanted to rather than the way other people dressed. In the past students felt they had to dress like everyone else or they would not be accepted. Preppies wore alligators and plaids while some students wore flannel shirts and faded jeans. But not everyone felt that way this year. Some students wore mini-skirts, while some went more with the western style. The students dared to be different by being themselves.
