That could describe the 18 staff members of the Big Sky Sun journal, the school newspaper. Part of their job, ofcourse, is to be snoopy about school and com- munity news - and the Sun Journal has developed a reputation for doing just that. Even if they are controversial, One article which received attention from students, was about a pic- ture of Big Sky Seniors which appeared on the front page of the Missoulian. Several people complained about the messages of the photo, which portrayed seniors in various costumes. Many people said the students were promoting the consumption of alcohol and the abuse of violence. This was only one incident in which the Sun journal was successful at including students and capturing their attention. In fact, the newspaper has built a reputation as a national award- winner during the past four years. Last year the paper was named one of the top 25 high school newspapers in America by the National Scholastic Press Association. And Quill and Scroll Society International gave the paper its George Gallup Award, its highest. Managing Editor Tammy Anton explains what it is like to work on a newspaper. No one knows the work behind it. You have to make a lot of sacrifices. Each new issue of the Sun journal was distributed every two weeks, instead of every three weeks as in previous years. The hours they put in for the newspaper, included staying after school until at least 10 p.m. on the Monday and Tuesday nights before the paper was out on Thurs- day. As well as class time, they came in on days when there was no school in order to meet a deadline. 30 -- Sun journal CHECKING A FACT A Features Editor Amber Underhill with Editor Marty Pierce.

It's a fun class, but it's a lot of hard work, commented, Junior Leslie Keenan. It was a big turnaround for the 1983-84 Sunrise Staff. Glenn Junkert, the newly selected year- book advisor had a big effect on the 1983-84 Sunrise. He, along with some Sunrise gm qxx staff members attended a i I t g it 1-- is MHSPAXNSPA journalism X ,st X 3 I rfrrr r Workshop in Minneapolis, Min- is. ' nesota for a week in the summer. . I learned a whole new way of '- mn 'tt'n' yearbooking, which I hope I have been effective in teaching to my staff members. I hope it shows in the 1984 Sunrisef, stated Iunkert. I learned a lot. When I went, I knew only about the section I was on last year, and when I came back, I knew what made a good yearbook and to look for in new ideas, commented Sunrise editor, Claudie Sterner. The students who attended the workshop came back from Min- nesota with quite a bit more knowledge of what yearbooking was all about. However, the staff has had to endure many difficult changes. I think all the changes are a great improvement. It takes a lot more time and work, but I think when the yearbook comes out it will be worth it,', acknowledged Senior Kim Waller. The most frustrating problem for the staff was that they broke several deadlines. Part of the deadline problems were caused by a new machine which the staff had to' learn to use. That advancement was a new Compugraphic MCS 8212 typesetter. On it the staff is able to set all its copy in whatever size necessary. Although it caused broken deadlines and other minor accidents, including the unexpected change of typeface styles because of a mistaken order, it still did the staff much good. Sunrise - 129
