'1-'f 'Yt Gym classes go coed In the seventeen years since Campus opened only minor changes have oc- cured in the physical education depart- ment: different teachers, new gym clothes, or maybe even new equip- ment. Now for the first time, the depart- ment has made a dramatic change. A co-educational program began second semester. With the exception of sepa- rate locker rooms, everyone does ev- erything together instead of separate- ly. Tracy Bevan, freshman, said, I would like it fthe new systemj, because everyone is always saying why can't women do the same as men, and now we can. On the other hand Jeff Cummings, freshman, said, l don't like it because we have to take it easier with the girls competing in games with us. Other than that it's okay. The change was made in order to comply with Title IX, the federal educa- tion amendment adopted in 1975, which requires that, no school pro- vide any course or activity separately on basis of sex. 1 1!

lVlusic, more than concerts Many people believe that giving concerts is the only thing that music students do. Although there are con- certs, much time is spent practicing and going over and over the music to be performed, they also spend time drilling. As well as performance oriented courses there are three non-performing classes: beginning chorus, choral techniques, and in- strumental techniques and music lab. In beginning chorus, students learned to read music, play the pi- ano and sing. Most of these students were underclassmen who were then transfered into choir. Students enrolled in choral tech- niques learned to conduct. They served as student directors and taught carols to ensembles who per- formed at the Christmas concert. Instrumental techniques and mu- sic lab class, helped band stu- dents to learn a new instrument, an- dfor to let students work on devel- oping their skills on a particular in- strument. 2 1! Choral techniques student, Garry Pierce, senior, practices di- 1 3 recting a small ensemble, a re- 4 5 quirement of that course, 21 As president of band, Jay Slater, sen- ior, takes over the class. 3! Band director, Mr. Edmer Cornelson, utilizes his musical abil- ity by playing with the band. l-le can often be seen accompanying different numbers onthe trumpet, trombone, or guitar. 4! Mr. Joe Fehrmann, vocal music, choral techniques, Mr. Edmer Cornelson, instrumental music. S! Preparing for concerts is almost an everyday occurance for Campus Singers, one of the most popular groups in the music depart- ment. . l . W..,,s-

However, most students took advantage of the information and facili- ties offered. The room was often filled with classes searching for information for a class project or individuals looking for simple enjoyment. The annual Book Fair was held in one of the rooms attached to the main li- brary. Students were able to enter the room only after checking their coats and purses in to library aides assigned the duty. This resulted from large thefts in preceeding year. However, this did not lessen the turn out. March was the beginning of the Chi- nese New Year, the Year of the Ser- pent. ln observance of the new year, a display was set up in the library show- ing different types of Chinese dress and age-old Chinese traditions. Stu- dents were able to view various items and actually taste Chinese tea and cookies. Ms. Becky Johnson made ar- rangements for the display. 2 1! Much time and thought is spent as T1 Terry Trissler, senior, selects an infor- mative book from the many available. 2! Mr. George Baird, librariang Mrs. Ruth Wiseman, library clerk. 3! Throughout the day, library aides assist students by checking outbooks and magazines and maneuvering the microfilm view- ers. Diane Free, senior, makes sure Marsha Chambers, senior, has correctly checked out the book she has chosen for CHEER. .Dx
