at '” in the midst of change O lowly the signs of construction disappeared and once again order was restored. Dominic Olivcrio The stage was set for a year that could be as good or bad as the student body cared to make it. All started quietly, but along came surprises. Rain poured on homecoming as people ran to talk to friends who had umbrellas. And the parking lot gained some order due to marked off spaces. The big surprise came in late October when 43 students were involved in a drug bust. TV cameras swarmed the school, and even Bob and Tom from Q95 con- tributed with the naming of the school Columbia East. But so few students were involved in the actual drug bust, that to the remainder of the students the event was an adventure. Exciting culture. Many educational activities take place outside of the classroom. The foreign language de- partment hosted the annual Ethnic Expo. The Expo gave students a chance to showcase their talents, through skits which involved foreign languages, in an out of school educa- tional activity. Junior Erin Finn participated in a skit as a guide on a tour bus. The skit was a success and added to the excitement of the entire program. 4 Opening

The events of 86-87 seemed to end before they had begun. New courses such as Chinese and Russian were added to the curriculum and the Olympians proved themselves to North with the slogan Dog O-BEAT- iance School as the theme for the East North basketball game. Special memories were sprinkled through the year. Memories such as when... a group of Senior guys came to school for Halloween dressed as a six pack, Junior Tony Campbell's green Volkswagon blew up, and when vandals attempted to write CNHS on the side of the building and misspelled it. All these events transformed the year 1987 into a memorable one. Free lime. Senior Kendrick Largcnt spent his lunch mod catching up on homework while Senior Kim Jack- son kept him company. The com- mons provided students with a place to study and socialize. During class mods the commons served as a place to study and relax with reading ma- terial from the library. The coke machines that set to the right of the commons were a freedom few other schools enjoyed. Dominic Olivcrio
