6wv6ofvTtans With the opening of school well under way, Titans turned to extra curricular activities for a change of pace. With new courses, homework was plentiful and many hours were divided between themes, math problems, and reading assignments and club groups which gained new esteem this year. The Social Studies Department offered a new course which dealt with urban development and governmental influence over family living. ln the Mathematics Department, Probabilities and Statistics gathered new students and taught pupils principles of logic. In the tenth hour, many girls discovered that a back handspring is not the hardest thing in the world. Gymnastics for girls proved well worth the time, effort and callouses as competition became a real possibility. Titans excelled above the computer and filled the their days with activities of their own choosing.

For the first chaotic month of school, it looked as if the Senior Class of '71 would have no organization at all. However, the first class assembly changed matters. On October 6, seniors of '71 met for the first time and conducted their election of officers. The fact that the top five positions are held by males is a step backward in the Women's Liberation lVlovement. This blow to the girls jolted them into a little political planning. Through the year seniors conducted a class all their own. They could take the initiative to accomplish more than ever before. The individual could submit ideas for senior activities and be a participant rather than a spectator. Yes, the year of the computer meant CHANGE, but time may prove that the mechanical monster has not been so drastic after all. J!
