Hangouts don’t necessarily define the individual; Saskia Grinbe (91) defies assumptions and seeks corner peace outside the corridor. The Career Center becomes a necessity for all juniors and seniors looking for the perfect college. The search continues for James Scott (89) as he pursues his career choices.

Cracks, Crviews, Aud Kids To Fiad | Where Do You Go? Anna Balogh When you have a free what’s your first thought? Zooming by Ernie is the first choice of many. Or that Physics test... but your brain is addled by too much caffeine, and too little sleep, so you scur- ry to the library to panic some more over what you don’t know? Going to the caf to sit and talk with friends (or to be em- barrassed by your friends) can also be amusing. Some folks find standing out- side their next class for fifteen minutes kind of fun, too. Lying on the rug at Four Corners certainly seems to be the most comfortable (unless you're stepped on). Or sitting and having an up close and personal moment with your hallmaster Ne can certainly have its “perks”.

14 Our Mentors Ayr Academics -Chloe’ Ah, academics. That ever-popular, ever-sought after elusive epitome of intellectualism and... how pompous. Just try being popular and intellectual on three hours of sleep! It isn’t easy. Academics teaches one, if not the obvious, tact and courtesy. Ever notice how every teacher, no matter how excruciatingly, agonizingly dull the sub- ject, will love it with all their heart and be mortally offended should you, the student, fail to do likewise? In order to reduce the number of teachers seeking refuge from their classes and fleeing to Jamaica, it is crucial to greet these people each day and insert an uplifting com- ment or two: » “My, Mr. Frinelli, your ferns certainly seem rather voluptuous this morning ...do you prune them yourself or does Mrs. Frinelli help?” Of course, not all teachers are this naive. Some assign readings in obscure languages, and, should you fail to understand the languages, will say “Alors, tant-pis pour vous!” (French students far and wide, I sympathize). Then there are those homework assignments from 1981 you insist you've turned in. The teacher, disagreeing, will always win. (The Seniority Hypothesis: If I am older and far superior to you, then I will always be right. .Also applicable to parents and assorted ancient relatives.) Academics has it’s ups (‘ 98%-this calls for ice cream!) and it’s downs (28%-damn, I need ice cream!”), but a healthy combination of the two, leaning preferably on the higher side, shouldn't be too awful.
