Last year's Quill, under the supervision of Advisor Roger Shanley, tried a new format. This format was produced in hopes to put in more writing pieces with a broader scope or outlook and with hopes to publish the Quill more than once a year, expressed Mr. Shanley. Quill was formed to promote writing excellency by selecting students' writings for publication. It was also to make sure the faculty became aware of the students' writing ability, stated Vice-President Mia Schnaible. It was the concern of Quill to make sure that the students with the talent to write, received the recognition they so greatly deserved, expressed Mr. Shanley. Quill members were acquired on a 8 Page: Debbie Bulgrinjean McKnight Photos: Cindy Nickol, Lori Ashford voluntary basis and each member had certain guidelines and rules to follow. Each member must be able to know good quality writing and creative work when they see it, and also participate in the fundraisers set up throughout the year, replied Mr. Shanley. He con- tinued, They also needed to be able to publish the Quill in a professional man- ner, needed to produce a good literary magazine, and to make sure it is able to familiarize students, teachers, and facul- ty with creative writings going on around the campus of Santa Rita High School. Though the membership Qapprox- imately twelve, was small when com- pared to most clubs at Santa Rita, it was expressed by many ofthe Quill members that Santa Rita High School had the best Quill and Quill members around.

An Enriching Experience Q or 'tis the mind that makes the body rich'. That quote came from the play The Taming ofthe Shrew by William Shakespeare which was one of the many plays read and analyzed by the students in the Shakespeare Class and Club. Ms. Bowland, teacher and club advisor, wanted her students to gain a greater understanding of their fellow man by studying what Shakespeare said in his plays. Ms. Bowland felt that additional study of the Elizabethan Age and Shakespeare's life aided students in understanding the motivation behind his plays. This benefited the students by enriching them with more areas of in- terest and increased their knowledge of life. Nancy Neubauer, club vice-president, explained, The English language con- tains 24,000 quotes from Shakespeare, more than any other written material. Sarah Henceroth, president of club, ex- pressed further, A lot of quotes in other classes alude to Shakespeare. The students also enjoyed fieldtrips to Phoenix to view the Merchant of Venice and to Scottsdale to see Twelfth Night. In April they hosted a banquet which in- volved research into clothing, cooking, and the structure of banquets held from 1509-1616. The students chose a character from a play, made their own costume, and memorized quotes to use in presenting themselves to the queen, whom they elected. The climax of the year occurred in the summer when club members attend- ed a Shakespeare festival in Ashland, Oregan. Ms. Bowland commented ex- citedly, It's a terrific festival, we'll see four performances and take part in several workshops. jean McKnight, sec., said, It lthe clubl is a good group of people with a common interest.
