Freshman Jennifer Sorrell participates in Music Dress Up Day by dressing as Janis Joplin. Music Scene Disrupts Routine A new Student Council innovation to liven up the school year was the idea of Music Dress Up Day. All students were asked to dress to repre- sent their favorite kind of music. Examples included punk rock (safety pin ear- rings and punk glasses), disco (glitter and satin pants), and country western (hats and belt buck- les), just to name a few. Participation rate was high as many students could be seen strolling the halls dressed in gar- bage bags, disco outfits, boots and bandannas. Willie Nelson fans Mary Harrup and Kayla Wallis chat in the hall with Diane Busch. 22 STUDENT LIFE
