Jr. Jay Croft who is feature editor for the MEDALLION, stated that, We have a cooperative staff which makes it a good working environment and Mr. Mindock keeps things together and the MEDALLION quality high. Yearbook Production was an elective course in journalism area. There was a staff of twenty hardworking members for the 1979-80 year, final copy, layouts, cropping, and deadlines were totally strange to the fifteen new members, but there were four oldies who helped them along. Editor of the OLYMPIAD was Sr. Amy Burkholder, and Advisor was Mr. Brian Olesen. His first year was a trying experience and he commented that, Being Yearbook Advisor was the most difficult thing I have ever done. I didn't accomplish all things I wanted to, but the staff did a tremendous job putting out the largest book Gateway has ever attempted - on time. Journalism 95

IVlath a Helpful Department 6 G can get moreindividual help ' ' in my math class, than in any other class, quoted Soph. Toby Cooper. The skills taught in the math department were educational in everyday life and could be helpful in getting a good job such as an engineer, stock clerk, or bookkeeper, and other jobs. Ms. Barbara Curtis, who was head of the department, stated, Math is a very difficult subject which you have to keep up with. You have to do the homework! Ms. Curtis enjoyed teach- ing here and plans to continue teaching until she retires, which will be quite awhile, she commented laughing. Sr. Denita Brandon stated, Throughout the school year the math teachers were really understanding, and they helped me individually to understand the difficulties I had with math. Sr. Scott Peterson remarked, I did not agree with the teachers all the time, but overall, the math department is good, due to the understanding and coopera- tion of the teachers. ll Students work out problems in the famous geometry class. 23 Jr. Colleen Johnson brings her pet to her Algebra ll class. 31 Jr. Terry Kasdorf shows his intelligence. 43 John Smith puts his mind to rest and his calculator to work.
