Semper Ubi Sub Ubi Latin isn ' t the only language, just the best, inscribed on a poster in Room 604, greeted each student as he made his daily entrance. A few students took this to heart and chose to enroll in Latin, giving them the option of join- ing the Latin Club as well. The Latin Club attended the annual Latin con- vention in Concord, California, where they en- joyed a Roman banquet, ' Olympics, chariot races, and ' Certaman, a Latin version of Jeopardy. Ms. Dickey, Mona Wang, Scott Fredrickson, Don Sutorius, and Cara Tyler, the club ' s lead- ers, organized the DMHS boxer shorts sale as a major fund-raiser. The colorful, spirited shorts were a hit among students. Proceeds of the sale were used to defray expenses for the convention and the traditional post-Sat- urnalia banquet. The Latin Club hoped to instruct students in Ancient Roman culture: mythology, how to build a decent chariot, and how to wear a toga properly. Latin proved applicable out- side of school also. Although the language increased vocabulary and improved gram- mar, Scott Fredrickson felt that the best part of learning Latin is translating college mot- tos. -k.g. 1.
