What was the Worst thing about being an underc1assman'7 28 Sophomores Soph om ores give studying an A I found it easier to study with the radio on. I don't know why,', exclaimed sophomore Brad Reecy. He was not alone. About 7395 of the sophomore class studied better with outside distractions. This could have been contributed to being either right or left brained. Left brained people could focus on a certain subject even if other activities were going on around them, while this caused interference for right brained people. Sophomores were almost split in half about whether they had good study habits. Sixty percent said they did have good habits, while 4076 said they did not. Anne Marie Tso claimed she didn't have good study habits because she always waited until the last minute, then crammed for a test. Jan Kippley felt she should have spent more time studying. Over half the sophomores studied less than one hour a night. Some spent about one to two hours, and very few studied for more than three. Stacy Lindquist would have rather been doing something she felt more constructive: sports. While the sophomores would rather have been doing other things than studying, 8796 felt studying did pay off. Rewards included good grades, positive feedback from friends, and parent's well earned approval. Only a minority of the class felt studying did not have any benefits. Bonnie Croft commented, I needed more incentive. My parents came up with this one: money! I got money for good grades, but for bad grades I got the pleasure of brown- nosing them fparentsl for the rest of my natural lifef,

Being picked on by Mr. Tennant ,-Jan Kippley Deprjved sophs forced to starve The word sophomore is a combination of the Greek words Sophos, meaning wise, and moros, meaning fool, One definition of a 'twise fool is someone who understands that he doesn't know everything. One thing that Roncalli's wise fools did know was that they were forbidden to go into the student center during school hours. So what did they do when they were stricken by a mid-morning junk food craving'? Most sophomores abided by the rule and just starved until lunch or after school. Sandra Sukut, on the other hand, was seen ducking into the student center between classes. Often she also bought a bag of Doritos from the first lunch period to take to her 4A class. I' 5 . K v A Some sophomores got desperate enough to ask an upperclassman to get candy for them while they waited outside. Anne Holland saw nothing wrong with that. 4'The juniors and seniors still felt superior because it showed that we knew that they were a step higher than us. Holland added, Hllm sure l'll appreciate the rule next year. Until then, all the wise fools will be better off not fooling with the wise. You'll get your turn next year. fi' 5 X 3 , l. gf 'T i During homecoming week, the sophomores proved that everything is better with Blue Bonnet on it. In their class skit, patients Shawn Wherry, Heather Darling, Heather Kramer, and 30 Sophomores Jamie Lipp are instantly healed of their ailments when they are sat on by the doctor, James Schmitz.
