Ch VVhat A Year lt Was! Indeed this was quite a year, with a mix- ture of different trends and people, a wide variety of special and current events, and the renewal of American Patriotism. The year included a little bit of every aspect of American life and culture. Even fashion was a combination of many differ- ent decades thrown together to produce one style. Teens would go to rummage stores and pick through old clothes from the SC's and SO's, claiming these gar- ments as the new look. With this look came new music, produced by high-tech computerized synthesizers. Computer music was just one of the many ways the high-tech industry influenced Americans this year. American life and culture was expressed to the limit during the Summer Olympics in Los Angeles, the Democratic Convention in San Francisco, and Super Sowl XIX at Stanford, which were all hosted by the state of California. From Americans dominating the Clym- pics, to the nationalism of the elections, a rebirth of American Patriotism was brought to life. America's upbeat mood was not just a bunch of flag waving politi- cans, it was everyday working class men and women trying to make the world and country a better place to live in. lVlany L.lnit- ed States citizens found themselves en- joying the new Americanism, including stu- dents and faculty at Seyer. Because after all, we are the patriots on the waves of change. 9 ,X f X70 .Alyfffi Mlfffzz? fe S lull! i i .
