Stuff ’84 “all the news that fits we print May 1984: Volume 1, Number 1 A Letter From the Editor Dear Readers, Stop looking around. No, your yearbook is not the only one with this funny colored paper in the center. Yes, we planned it like this. No, we did not have to insert this type of parchment because its cheaper and we ran out of money. This is a Magazine Section. I know it's something new, but I have absolute trust in y'all. (Oh! 1 did have to swallow my Northern pride when I typed that.) I'm sure you can adapt. The next 16 pages of your yearbook are filled witn exactly what the title says, STUFF. STUFF going on, and who's doing and thinking what. Now, before I get started telling you all about yourselves, there are a few things I'd like to say. No matter what anybody calls us (Preps, Brains, students of Egotistical High) no one can ever change the fact that Episcopal High School is a wonderful place to learn about living, loving, and learning. So, before we journey into our own small world, I want you to remember that the next time somebody puts down EHS you just tell them to STUFF it. Please laugh in about your school, what's all the right places. ojOutv su ta Editor, STUFF'84 Some Things Never Change, Or Do They? Every year the summer ends, and that lovely morning arrives when we have to get up early and go back to school, homework, and studying. It seems we get caught in the same routine every day, every week, every year. Some things never change, or do they? This year we started back to school with a new headmaster who was so excited to get to know us he had most of us come eat lunch with him in his office. A new chaplain started our days with an English accent and got us to sing in Chapel. We beat U-High! (U-Who?) and had a victory dance in the cafetorium. Mavbe things weren't perfect, how could they be with no new M A’S H episodes, but the 1983-84 school year greeted us with tons of new STUFF. Who ever said some things never change? What can these shoes tell us about our student body? For more information see page 115. Photo by C. Atkinson. Claire Crespo hugs Toby Massengale after the U-High victory.

• • • The EHS Experience is A Product of People You know, almost every yearbook that has ever been produced at EHS has tried to sum up what the Episcopal High Ex- Perience is all about. Well, 11 tell you, when you get down to the nitty gritty this coveted EHS experience is the product of nothing more (or less) than people. STUFF '84 sent out a questionnaire to the entire student body in the hopes of learning more about our Episcopal people. First, 1 think 1 should mention that somewhere along the line about 100 of the questionnaires disappeared. (O.K., so it was cold over the Christmas holidays and we burned a few.) Now, this means that you need to take into account that not every person's opinion is expressed in the results. And in regard to every person's opinion, we here at STUFF '84 want you to remember that we are not responsible for the irregular and sometimes bizarre answers of our fellow students. Taking these two facts in mind, we invite you to read on and see just what kind of STUFF the Episcopal Experience is made of... Students work diligently on their questionnaires. Photo by C. Atkinson The Result of Attitude Almost everyone will agree that a student's attitude toward his school is a direct reflection of his experience there. STUFF '84 asked the students of EHS this philosophical question Do you like school? 324 EHS students say yes, they like school, ana 200 say no, they do not like scnool. What surprised me though was that in a school that is preparing us for college life (and beyond), 16 people couldn't even decide and checked yes and no, and 56 people did not even answer the question. Now, one has to wonder if this indecisiveness has been instilled in us here at Espiscopal High School, or if we are afraid to answer such an important question because we don't know who will be reading our answer. Granted, our administration is tough, but so far no one who checked no has disappeared in the undercover of the night. Wouldn't you think that members of a college prep school would have the courage of their convictions? 40 people even wrote sort of next to this question. What kind of an answer is sort of ? And, because there are always those people who feel tne need to write in extra comments on questionnaires, another question was raised. The words not any more were scrawled on one paper. Are there those at this school that feel the system has let them down down, or (believe it or not) have become disillusioned with our educational adventures? The EHS experience is a product of all the people here, and a product of every person's attitudes, tastes, and behavior. No one person is an island at EHS — everyone influences someone else. Our attitudes (whether they be those of the 324 students who like school, or the one who no longer does) play an important role in the making of the Episcopal experience. What is your real attitude toward EHS, deep down inside? Hate? Love? Excitement? Apathy? Bitterness? Thankfulness? Think about it. I know it is a serious question. But even the most serious sides of life are not devoid of comic relief. Read on... You may recognize this face from The Rolling Stones new video Undercover of the Night. 114
