ZIPPING THROUGH A UNIT TEST ON GRAM- MAR. Nikki Harris sports the latest in nerd fashion. THAT ' S ENTERTAINMENT Two tickets, please. you say to the girl in the box office as you enter the theater. Red carpet on the floor and dim lighting set the hypnotic mood for the show. The aroma of hot-butterd popcorn wakens your nostrils, and you cannot resist saying, Two buckets of pop- corn, please. You can barely see the floor, but you manage to choose the two best seats in the house — mid-front. Everyone speaks softly un- til the background music stops and utter silence drops over the theater. Within a few seconds a bright image appears on the twenty-foot screen nearly blinding you, and the dolby sound system plants you firmly into your seat. That is just the beginning. Within the next two hours you will cry a river and laugh harder than you ever have before. You will be challenged. You will escape life momentarily and find the meaning of it. Sure, you could rent the box-office smashes and watch them at home anytime, but there is still an awesome lure to the theater where all of the senses are entertained, and the action leaps off the screen at you. At school, teachers use the same techniques to interest students. In the classroom the atmosphere is set for lear- ning with few distractions. Teachers stimulate students with books, xeroxed pages, and filmstrips for the eyes; cassette tapes and lec- tures for the ears; and, occasionally, real-live movies for both. Teachers do not intend to im- press the eyes and ears, but they do intend to stimulate the mind. In that sense school is much like the theater. It is a place where you go to be challenged — a place where you can escape from life or find the meaning of it. After all, that is entertainment. - £i. .. . . « o o ADMIT ONE STUDENT LIFE
