Looks Can Fool The Closest Observer When the 1982 Desert Sands yearbook was distributed last May, the students at Antelope had mixed feelings about the cover, which was a map of the area done in watercolor paints. One student thought it looked like a comic book and wasn’t “classy” enough. Another thought it looked like it had been done in a hurry. However, others liked the cover very much. One student, a junior, thought it was “cute” and many others felt it was very interesting to follow the roads on the map. But whether each student liked the cover or not wasn’t a major concern, what really mattered was that they liked the inside, which happily most of them did. The point is, you can’t judge a book, or anything else, by its cover. People are often judged by their “covers” or looks. Some common examples are sex, race, color, age, weight, and height. Many people base their opinions of someone solely on that person’s appearance. For instance, if a student from the eastern United States came to our school, he might stand out like a sore thumb because of the way he dressed and spoke. He might have a difficult time making friends. Often when a student doesn’t wear certain brands of expensive clothes, like OP, Sasson, and Jordache, he might be ignored and not given a chance by others to be friends. They might really like him if they waited to get to know him before judging him by his appearance. Students aren’t the only people to be misjudged. Some teachers are unfairly labeled “strict,” “boring,” “mean,” and “Slavedriver.” For example, if a student who always disrupts class by making jokes, has a teacher who is very serious about teaching, they may not get along very well and the student may call the teacher a “strict ol’ grouch, or worse, even though the teacher really does care about the student. Through the years many people have realized that judging by appearances is wrong, so they thought up bright cliches to be reminders. Some are “beauty is in the eye of the beholder,” “beauty is only skin deep,” and “all that glitters is not gold.” “Appearances can be deceiving” and many times they are. Though this yearbook looks like a magazine, it really isn’t. A magazine is a collection of stories about current news and fashions, but a yearbook is a book of past news and fashions. It’s a book of remembrances. So you see, you can’t judge a yearbook by its magazine cover! Cruz Carillo, Renae Robinson, Joel Conner, Joe Ray, and Kenneth Bump listen intently during a November VICA meeting. 2
