There are many differing views on how mixed gym classes have affected the quality of teaching. The girls are either all for it or totally against it. From a girlis point of view, the classes are tougher because guys are much harder competitors Therefore, girls that enjoyed gym, now enjoy it even more because it is more of a challenge for them. Girls that hated gym, now hate it even more because participating in front of guys makes it unbearable. The guys find the girls really try their patience. They are the weakest part of 'ctheir teams. Guys have to tone down their game and go easy on the girls. Football and a fast game of basketball are things of the past. Gym is alot less challenging for them. The action of this sophomore co-ed gym class involves everyone.

ld World Class European Studies is the famous history course required of all Sophomores. You may ask what makes European Studies such a great course. Well, it is a bridge to the cultural past from which the majority of our students come. In European Studies you learn about the Irish, French, Germans, and that great civilization of the Romans. There's a little for everyone in European Studies. For those who like learning of early ways of life, there is the study of the stone age. Art lovers will take interest in the Egyptian pyr- amids and Greek colosseums. Those that like the past and present will enjoy or may not enjoy the Renaissance, the Ref- ormation and the Scientific Revolution. In those brief periods man began to move farther and farther into the future. For the adventurous type the French Revolution and the Napol- eanic Era will eat you up. From there you can get lost in the midst of World War I. Donlt get too lost because World War II is just ahead. Why is it so important to bridge the past and the present with European Studies? In this uncertain age which produced ROOTS, it is reassuring for all of us to trace our cultural heri- tage. If youlre lucky enough to make it through, you can move 6'OnWard, hon to the West for American Studies. The overhead projector is one of Mr. Curtin's favorite helps in the classroom. erotuoudog Oo O o Michael Casler Gale Cavallaro Chris Cawley Anne Centore Deborah Chambers Susan Chestnut A. ff r1eaL fl1l3fv2r Matthew Chilton Thomas Cierek Pat Coghlan Sherry Coker Kathy Colabufo Sharon Cole Nancy Coleman Stephen Coleman Edward Colomb Brandan Connor Maureen Corcoran Rose Corso , ,, .d

It tests and teaches how to get along with both guys and girls playing the same game at the same time,-something many of us haven't learned to cope with yet. lt's my turnl , Mark Dahlin seems to be saying to Ramona George.
