Barry Perkins George Peterka Cindy Petersen Jerry Petersen Craig Petrovich Paul Pham Sandra Pinkston Mary Anne Pongco Government Survey: seniors take a second glance A Government survey, given to seniors in the fall, made them take a second look at their knovi ledge of current events. Most seniors felt that it was im- portant to read, study, and discuss political issues. Many of them demonstrated this by identifying events, such as the Iran-Contra Hearings and the U.S warships escorting Kuwait ' s oil tankers. Almost everyone knew that Mikhail Gorbachev was the leader of the Communist Party in the U.S.S.R., and that William Rehnquist was the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. I thought that it was pretty easy, said Senior Jim Enochs. Though fairly knowledgeable in national events, most seniors could not correctly identify California ' s US. Congressmen. Nor, could many of them name their district ' s state representative. One reason for this lack of knowledge could be that the top magazines read by the seniors were Seventeen and Surf Magazine. So it makes sense, according to Government teacher Jim Mamer, that since most information about current events was gained from friends who read the same magazines, seniors would be lack- ing in local news. I felt that most of the questions were too hard, said Senior Susie Beehler We don ' t really think about government in our everyday life. However, when the correct answers were read in class, many students were heard saying, I knew who that was, I just didn ' t know his name. Mamer, believes that, The reason many of the students don ' t know what ' s going on is largely because they live in a society that does not seem to care. We live in a society that ' s a-political. As a teacher, it (the quiz results) don ' t upset me, said Mamer. As a U.S. citizen, though, it upsets me. — by Pam Krebs Amy Pontillas Joe Pontius Arie Posin Uiana Predado 206 Perez — Prec ado Sen ors
