c X Jhange (chanj), v.l.a. To cause to be different; alter, b. To give a completely form or appearance to; transform. 2. To give and receive reciprocally; interchange. That’s how Webster defines change. We may devise our own definition, but however they may differ, one thing remains the same: change is constant. It is an unavoidable factor that grips everyone of us, molding us into temporary patterns suitable for the time being, but bound to be altered sometime in the future. During the past fifty years, BHS has seen as much change as has been possible in that time period. It’s thousands of graduates have respectively gone through American involvement in three different wars as well as numerous hairstyles, musical preferences and countless fads such as string pearls, pet rocks and hula hoops. Remembered are swings of fervent patriotism and waves of strong opposition. For those graduates of the rigid and traditional 1938, the black jackets and bobby-socks of the teenagers of the 1950’s must have seemed outrageous, not to mention the long-haired Beatlemaniacs of the 1960’s, the “hippies” and “acid-rockers” of the ’70’s, and then our generation. But change is not always involuntary or uncontrollable; it can be caused by pressure, desire, and popular demand-ideals well-known to the children of the 1960’s and the early 1970’s. Looking around them they saw a stultifying, turbulent, and authoritarian world that inhibited freedom, affecting them directly. With a senseless war raging in Southeast Asia, dishonest presidents in office, heroes like J. F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King, Jr. assassinated within the same decade, and protestors massacred on college campuses, a wave of confusion and anger arose. Men grew their long hair in defiance as women wore blue jeans instead of skirts, and burned their bras. A great change had been formed and its results are still present for us to honor and enjoy, years after revolution went out of style. We as the educated future leaders of the country, hold that same power. With a positive outlook and a desire to change for the better, we will look back on our high school years, the knowledge we gained, those whom we love and recognize our goals, purposes and accomplishments with pride because we are the leaders of our own future.
