1 JETS J ETS' future goal was to become more competitive. In its second year the Junior Engineering Technical Society CJETSJ was geered towards the study and research of various fields of engineering. Although the club was in the building stage, JETS managed to participate in many activities. They participated in a field trip to the Engineering Department at the University of Florida together with members of Mu Alpha Theta, Eastside's Math Honor Society. Along with the National Honor Society and Mu Alpha Theta, JETS organized a Christmas breakfast for the three club's members at Skeeter's Breakfast House. Throughout the year, JETS corresponded with colleges throughout the nation asking for any information about scholar- ships available to their members. JETS also offerred the Na- tional Engineering Apptitude Search Test QNEASTJ to any interested student. The club's future goal was to become more competitive with JETS chapters around the state. 1.

RAM COU TRY Money problems were met with difficulty. The 1982 RAM COUNTRY Staff was eager to begin put- ting the book together. Although there were tough money prob- lems and deadlines to meet, being on the yearbook staff was an outstanding experience. We all learned new ways and ideas to become better acquainted with ourselves and others around us. The yearbook staff is one big family growing, learning, and sharing each day. Rising printing costs necessitated a reduction in the number of pages. Compensating for this omission, the staff tried to effectively use the available space. Miss Sara Westmoreland, advisor, and Ilona Lawless, editor-in-chief, spent many long hours proofing copy, checking layouts, and instructing new members in journalistic techniques. Selling ads was quite a problem, but we managed to hang on and strived to produce a quality yearbook. Miss Westmoreland was quoted several times saying We need more money. As a member of the Florida Scholastic Press Association, we participated in workshops, where we learned new trends in lay- out designs, covers, and copy writing. Miss Westmoreland worked hard with us to produce an award-winning yearbook. We travelled to FSPA State Con- vention, April 29th through May lst, where we received numer- ous awards for our journalistic efforts. it Wi' xx NAM . ax A 7 , X. . get l QW 'Vi' 2 l56fRam Country I c 5001 1.
