l . Q . Senior Year Expensive Yet Profitable lf' -Q J As the school year drew closer, seniors dreamed of their last year filled with fun and privileges. But also with the coming year came a great deal of uncertainty about such things as life after high school. Colleges were selected, ACT tests were taken, information was re- ceived and sent off about future prospects. Expenses played a part in the high school life. Caps, gowns, and graduation announcements were just a few of the expenses the seniors incurred readying for their final moments. The senior class des- ignated four hundred and twenty five dollars to the journalism fund in order to insure senior pictures would be seen in full color in the 1981-82 yearbook. Then, because treasury amounts were insufficient to pay for all senior's cap and gown rental, individuals took financial responsibility. Rented and bought from lostens, caps and gowns cost approximately eight dollars5 memory books-six dollars5 senior keys-ten dollars5 graduation announcements-thirty-one cents apiece5 name cards-seven dollars per hundred. 1 Even though billfolds were sometimes barren, seniors somehow found money and time to make the year a memorable one. Privileges such as trips to Blue Springs to eat lunch, roaming the halls, mischief- making, and hassling underclassmen were a trait of most seniors. Overall, expenses weighed heavily on tight budges but were far outweighed by the memories that were created. One of the many profits of the senior year is choosing the senior's who's who, in which Robert Apel and Ann Amor received recognition as most athletic.fup er leftl.
