Well, those seniors were right, this was it! The end of financial freedom. Here comes the bouncing checks and look out Mom and Dad for the destitute senior screaming out Can I borrow . . .? or Please help me! For the 1983 seniors the first expense came in their junior year, when it was time to order the senior ring. The rings ranged in price from S79 to 35400. Then you had all summer to save for the costly mementoes which came about during the year. First you had to order your cap and gown, which, according to Senior Jackie Shelton, was an enlightening experiencefl The cap and gown was S18 plus the 52.50 for each extra tassel. Then there was the ordering of the Graduation in- vitations. The cheapest a senior could come out of this one alive was 550. And then there was the Senior Prom. The girls had to foot the bill for S100 to S400 dresses. And of course there was the trip to the beauty shop, new shoes, a new gold chain and a little spending money just in case something came up. Senior Laura Hatcher enjoys it'l because the Prom is Ha big thing to a senior. Now for the fellows it was a little different story. They had an average cost of S75 rental fee for their tuxedo, new shoes, a haircut, and then the tickets to the prom for himself and, if a girl got lucky, his date. There was, of course, the empty gas tank to be considered. Brent Miller, senior, felt, It's all worth the expense because it's our last year and itis the Prom, you know! In April seniors could purchase a T-shirt with the name of each member of their class on it. Lest we forget, there was also registration fees for college entrance exams, club banquets, dorm deposits and new clothes for all these ac- tivities. The parents of seniors were glad when the year was over. As one parent put it, lt's a good thing it's over because l'm out of moneylll' 'EIS IN SH cn CD E. O ll U1 to c I-I
