Western Civilization Clubs bring cultures to San G A class which was also a club was offered fifth period. Western Civilization, the class taught by Mrs. Ellison, studied the Western civilization cultures and customs of Europe, Ancient Greece and Egypt. At the start of the year, they began with a dinner at a Greek restaurant to get an idea of the Greek cultures they were to study. Every Monday night, they held seminars at different students ' homes. They reviewed in depth, subjects in class and gave reports. During Christmas vacation, an alumni seminar was held in which returning students attended. Anna Hinkle, a new member in the club, com- mented, It ' s a great learning experience, especially if you ' re interested in the different cultures and customs of the Western Civilization! Like Spanish, the French Club focused on those who were most interested in the many ways of life and customs of another country as well as the languages used. Students who were a part of the French club were usually just those who were taking French at that time. They helped decide what the club was going to be active in, on cam- pus, and off. To raise money they sold candy bars, and calendars. Further money making activities were those at the Homecoming car- nival, in which they rented a booth that had dip bowling as its game. Darrell Dorsey com- mented on the carnival booth and club meetings, The Homecoming carnival didn ' t bring us much profit. The meetings are very nice for the people that attend them. f Top: Western Civilization talks about ancient Greece ' s location and customs during fifth period Above: Mrs. Ellison, adviser of Western civilization wants you to join her club.

Spanish promotes interest in Hispanic Studies The Spanish Honor Society, a club which recognized students taking Spanish II, III or IV, with high achievement, pro- moted the continuity of interest in the hispanic studies. In order to be a member of the society, one had to maintain a B average and be in their second year of Spanish. A $2.00 in- itiation fee was required. The Spanish Honor Society also provided its members with the opportunity to take the National Spanish Test. The high achieving juniors received a trip to Spain and the high achiev- ing seniors received a $ 1 ,000 scholarship. The officers of the 1982-1983 school year were: President, Sheila Brookes; Vice-President, Maria Parks; and Secretary- Treasurer, Andrea Lanas. The club adviser was Mr. Eastwood, a teacher of second and third year Spanish. The club sponsored many activities. They took a trip in January to the Ballet Folklorico Nacional at the Ambassador Auditorium in Pasadena. They funded this trip by having can- dy sales and Mexican food sales. Connie Garcia commented, The club looks great, everyone gets along super. Mr. Eastwood added, It ' s an HONORARY club.
