Leaders Of The Band If the students were asked what part of the school was most impor- tant, chances were that they wouldn't have said the faculty. But the school without the faculty would have been like an orchestra without a conductor. All the stu- dents and textbooks would have been there, but there would have been no one to guide the students toward learning. When students talked of the fac- ulty, most of the time they were referring to the teachersg but the teachers were just a small portion of the faculty. The secretarial staff was just as important, maybe more so, for without the secretaries, the teachers would have been bogged down by the paperwork, and no teaching would have gotten done. The cus- todial staff kept the school clean and the essential school equipment running. The administrative staff kept the books on each student, and disciplined any students who needed disciplining. The faculty members that the students ran into most, however, were the teachers. The students' lives were shaped enormously by the teachers they encountered. For example, who could ever forget Mr. Nelson, with his unique way of quieting a class with a ruler very forcefully applied to some hapless student's desk. Any student who had that happen to him would cer- tainly be influenced for life. The students owed the faculty a great debt, but, at times, the stu- dents never seemed to appreciate them. Even if they acted disrespect- fully at times, however, the students appreciated the faculty, for without the faculty there would never have been any organized learning in Ei- senhower High School. lf! 132 Faculty WY 3
