The Student Senate formed the Racial Relations Committee in response to some very real racial prob- lems at BHS. The idea was born in 1965, but was inactive for years until the fall semester of 1981. The Committee spent the semester sharing personal experiences and defining the problems as perceived by the members. It was decided that working on Berkeley High itself was a large enough task, so the group compiled a statement of the problems. This group statement was to be followed by a question- naire to the student body, in order to make use of the experiences and opinions of more people. The State- ment included such concerns as segregated classes, segregated clubs and teams, racial related violence, unrecognized prejudice in ourselves, and racism within the school institution. In the coming years, the committee plans to see what things must change in the stated problems, and how they can be changed. Then, at long last, the Racial Relations Committee can begin to implement some solutions. 23

This year ' s speech and debate team, meeting spo- radically in Mr. Johnson ' s kindly preoffered room, met with equally sporadic success. On the bright side, co-presidents Sara Maxwell and Steve Rypins won several awards in individual speech events, while making a good showing as loving partners in team debate. Rypins had an especially active year, attending the prestigious Harvard University and Loyola-Red- lands tournaments, accompanied at the latter by Da- vid Fiore. Overall, the team has thus far had its dreams of glory dashed, but has met with enough success to remain undaunted. Fond and not wholly unrealistic hopes are held for the district, league, and state champion- ships. SPEECH AMD DEBATE 24
