alk, talk, talk Students communicate What did you get for problem four? I didn't get it. I was hoping you got it. Maybe we should call Matt. He probably got it. How about prob- em five? The phone call - a necessary part of a student's life. Without it, I would die, senior Sally Dunn said. Most students would agree that their phones were a vital part of their lives. Because so many were involved in extra-curricular activities, they used their phones to arrange meetings with fellow club members. When a student felt a sudden attack of boredom, he picked up his phone and dialed the number of his favorite buddy. The phone's most important func- tion, however, was to arrange a date for a night on the town with that special someone. Equally important as the phone was the innerclass note. Sitting quietly in English class, one fre- quently had the urge to write a note. The note broke the monotony of the teacher's lecture. However, the note didn't always act as just a breakaway from boredom. It also served as a link between students. At times when use of a phone was impossible, students wrote their feelings and ideas down on paper. Thus, the note was an alter- native for those students unable to talk on the phone due to jobs and other extra-curricular activities. Since the note contained limited information, a face-to- face confrontation was almost inevitable. Verbal conversation allowed for an even better ex- pression of ideas and feelings. After first period, students pushed their way into the cafeteria to discuss friends, families, boyfriends, girlfriends, and school. When the often-too- short break was over, students found themselves running to class in order to avoid a tardy. Students continued their discus- sions after school in their homes, at the mall, in the parking lots, and in restaurants. Talking face-to-face was popular because It is efficient, inexpen- sive, and the easiest form of communication to understand, senior Maria Christopher said. 'gui' Problem five, problem five . . . I didn't get that one either Well, let me call Matt, okay? Oka , I'll talk to you tomor- row, bye. UBye.U Click. lShmockl 42 X Student Life - Communications
