Changing This has been my last year here. So what? As much grip- ing as I've done, I have to ad- mit that I am going to miss this placeg not so much the hal- lowed halls, but the people. My friends here range the spectrum - from rednecks to freaks . With this wide variety of influences, I think that I can safely say that my education, both from books and from life, has been rounded. Everyone that I have come into contact with has helped me - even those that I didn't get along with. These four years have given me con- fidence both in myself and in others. I have learned that be- ing wrong isn't necessarily bad. Most of all, I have learned that there are other people be- sides myself. 5 1 I l 2

Ever-Expandingp Each time We made a choice, we in- fluenced those around usp we changed their directions. They were re- oriented, even if only slightly, toward a new goal. Each choice is but one link of a chain - a chain as endless as the universe, yet as distinct as a flake of snowp as tangible as sandstone, yet as ethereal as a foggy country road. It is a chain of continuity.

When I first came here I was somewhat less than popular. Now, I think that I have been accepted as equal by almost everyone. First, no mat- ter Where you are, get involved in something, something that you enjoy. Second, if some- thing is bothering you, talk to someone, anyone. Iust don't keep it bottled up. Third, if someone is bothering you, tell them. Sooner or later they'll comprehend that you are another human being too. Above all, be who you are. Some where, there is some- body like you.
