Cafeteria is used for lunch room and study hall. Where are we going to sit today? It doesn't really matter. Just find a place with two empty seats. This was a discussion frequently held as we entered the cafeteria At times, finding room to sit together could be a problem because it was hard enough to find even one empty seat. With the closed lunches, there seemed to be twice as many people in the cafeteria. Even with the crowding in the cafeteria, we found room to finish homework assignments, cram for tests, talk with friends, and, of course, eat lunch. The first day was a bit overwhelming for some Freshman Joanna Kemmer was surprised on entering the cafeteria because, “I didn't know so many people could eat at one time The lines are long and slow, but the food is better than at West. During the other six periods of the school day, the cafetena was used as a study hall. Compared with the lunch periods, study hall was practically empty and a lot quieter. Senior Dana Story believed the cafeteria was the perfect place for study hall because it was so large. Mrs. Dismuke, the seventh period study hall teacher, did not agree with Dana When asked for her opinion, Mrs. Dismuke fervently answered that, “I think this is the worst place to have a study hall. With the lunch ladies cleaning up, it's much too noisy and dirty. Standing patiently in line every day, we wait to choose our lunch There were tmes when the fcnes seemed to move too slowty. but we were all ted Although Mrs. Dismuke does not lie cafeteria study ha Is. she monkors one durrtg the seventh period Mrs Dismuke leh that cafetena study hals were too noisy Cafeteria 19
