tudent Leaders Receive Gold Cougar One ol those people who never seem to meet a responsibility too big for them, .Janice Grammer proved her leadership ability time after time at BA. Always con- cerned, she listened intently to the feelings of other people and stood up for her own in all situations. During her junior year, she coordinated the activities of 300 girls as President of Spirits. Recognizing her sincere interest in BA students, the administration chose her to serve on the dress code committee with teachers, parents, and principals. As an active participant in the LIFE program, Janice worked many hours on planning the BA lab and Saturday session. This year, Janice was Secretary of the Student Council and Co-humor Editor of the Senior Pub. Craciously accepting her duties, Janice met her responsibili- ties with enthusiasm. She worked faithfully in the office for three years and was a member of Cothurnus Club. Well-liked by both faculty and student body, it only seemed natural that Janice would carry two or three major responsibilities at a time. The el Conquislador is proud to recognize Janice Grammer by pres- enting her the Gold Cougar Award. J amce Grammer X il I WNXX. Z
