EDITORIAL Today, such phrases as togetherness , family living, and the crowd are commonplace. We are living in an age where it is the style to follow the crowd; anyone not willing to comply with these standards is looked upon as someone entirely different or abnormal . True, being a member of the herd does have certain advantages. Take security for instance; each of us knows that his own group will accept him for what he is, no questions asked. There are other advantages too, such as learning from others or being able to accomplish something together. The disadvantages, however, far outweigh the advantages. In a group there are people of all types; some with strong personalities, others with weak. Invariably these stronger dominate the weaker, making them conform not only to their every demand but even to their every whim. We are living in an age where people are followers. You may say, But everyone can ' t be a leader! This is so, but we have such institutions as democracy so that the people can bid the leader do as they wish. Individualism is a great thing, a fact that we don ' t realize until it is taken away from us. To keep America strong we must retain our individualism, not be afraid to think for ourselves and speak out against anything that we believe is wrong! Marcia Potter Assistant Editor
