Forensics: Training For The Future The National Forenic League was an organization dedicated to preparing stu- dents for the future by helping them to communicate. Through competition with other schools, the members of the N.F.L. at Newman strengthened their ability to speak formally and logically. Mr. Patrick Keenan, the Forenic coach, stated, Stu- dents who participate in the N.F.L. un- derstand the importance of successful oral communication It is our belief that the best leader is one that is not only intelligent but can communicate his ideas.

It ' s Not Just A Job, It ' s An Adventure. It ' s not only an honorary member- ship, but also the students must be active- ly involved and attend meetings twice a month. These are some of the require- ments of the National Honor Society members according to Miss Leary, for- mer moderator of the N.H.S. The re- quirements were maintaining a 3.0 aver- age throughout the year. The student must have been actively involved in his community, school, and church, and showed scholarship, leadership, service, and character. After school they helped other stu- dents in need of tutoring. These students also organized career day, held bake sales and car washes, and engaged in the student-administration day where they taught for the day. However, they were required 5 service projects per semester. What exactly is the N.H.S. striving for this year According to the new moderator Miss Leannis, This year we encouraged the students to strive for certain goals in academics, services, and character devel- opment.
