MR. CHARLES SZUBF.RIA ADMINISTRATION: BIG BROTHER ” - FRIEND OR FOE? Although the administration often is associated with the image of Big Brother —hovering over the inno¬ cent youth — one ought to examine the tremendous task they try to fulfill. In a society such as our own, opinions are extremely diverse and equally difficult to represent by a single reflection. The administration is not only concerned with the taxpayer ' s budget, but strives to maintain an open communication line w ith students. They do not w ish to inhibit a student ' s creativity, but they must keep a watchful eye so as to avoid conflict with parents or faculty. Annually the burdens become more strenous, due to increasing enrollment, shortage of building facilities and con¬ tinually changing social opinions. Thus, the board must consider each proposal with an objective view¬ point coinsiding with the philosophies of contempor¬ ary educators. I)R. MERTO N HAYNES MR. JOHN BRISTOL MR. RAY TYLER 17
