Art was just about anything students wanted it to be depending upon their imagination. Delisa Simon said, lt's the expansion of non-reality in the mind. Missy Pociecha said, Art was a good way to express my feelings. There were many different types of art students chose to do. A popular pro- ject was letting each student design his own T-shirt. This involved everyone designing his own print an then screen- ing it on the shirt. Even though there was a variety of different media, it seemed the favorite of must students was the most basic: pencil drawings. Most students simply liked drawing be- cause it was practical. The main advan- tage of pencil drawing was mistakes were much easily taken care of in pencil than in paint. Art fit very easily in many of the stu- dents life styles at work or play. Some said they looked at art as a future goal since they planned to use it in their careers. Others thought of it as simply a leisure activity. Whatever the prefer- ence, it's a gift to treasure and be proud of. Amy Coggins Art

Want to take easy classes so we'll have a light load next year? Surel Dick said. Why don't we take yearbook or newspaper. This hypothetical situation was just one of the many wrong opinions stu- dents had about journalism courses of- fered at Mauldin. Students had the idea that it was all easy writing and no homework. Simply crip courses. Stu- dents didn't realize just how much work and responsibility went into produc- tion. Shannon Rice, a new yearbook staff member, said she didn't realize how responsible she had to be along as well as doing picky little jobs she never would have dreamed of. The students put out quality work to make the yearbook and newspaper suc- cesses. Teachers not only gave students writing and layout assignments, but the staffs also worked on advertising cam- paigns to help lower the cost of the pro- ducts. To explain the matter in easy terms, working in the yearbook or newspaper classes was like putting a puzzle togeth- er. First, the information had to be gathered, then it had to be pieced to- gether to fit. Amy Coggins Journalism
