While most teenagers his age went to parties to drink, he went for another reason. I r emember I used to eat lemons just to be different, he said. When he attended Reno High, Mr. Hunter had a habit shared by many students today. Because he didn ' t find his classes interesting, he didn ' t do his homework. When an assignment was supposed to be handed in, I would tell tall tales until I got caught, laughed Mr. Hunter. That lack of interest in his high school classes probably contributed to Mr. Hunter ' s uni- que and effective methods of teaching chemistry to his classes. Students found atoms easy to relate to because he compared them to dancing boys ana girls, liffy Pop popcorn, which he allowed students to cook over bunsen burners, kept students attentive during his better- than-Rambo films. He related the lessons to everyday situations and com- pleted the almost impossible task of making learning fun. Mr. Hunter hadn ' t always planned to become a teacher. In fact, when he was young he hoped to become a dairy farmer in Utah. I wanted to milk cows from morning until afternoon, he said. Mr. Humeral 13 In his twenty-three years of teaching, Mr. Hunter saw several changes. The most pro- minent change was the cTress code. When I first began teaching, girls had to wear skirts everyday. And if a boy ' s haircut was below his collar, ne would be expell- ed, he explained. The dress code certainly came a long way as did Mr. Hunter. From a teacher with a yearly salary of $5,100, he suc- ceeded in becoming not only the chairman of the Math and Science Department but also an appreciated teacher and friend of many students. Students could always count on Mr. Hunter to be a good sport and participate in student assemblies. by Michelle Struthers Reinhardt, Jack: Math Science Rhea, Kennedy: Naval Science Roberts, Linda: Language Arts Savenelli, Tony: Business Scoggin, Norman: Vice Principal Seely, Dick: Special Education Shank, Carol: Administrative Secretary Slaby, Robert: Principal Science Smithwick, Shelley: Band Spofford, Vaughn: Counselor Faculty (?f
