Black Student Union QBSUQ is similar to a community action organization, according to Allen Kirksey, president. Some students need to be made aware of their culture and that is what BSU attempted to achieve, he said. A Halloween party for underprivi- ledged children at Okema Day Center was sponsored by members of the club. ln addition, officers attended a conference concerning youth. Dr. joseph Parham from Maricopa County Community College spoke to the BSU students. Following several years of partici- pating in the club, Mrs. Letha Barrett relinquished her sponsorship to Mrs. Susan Wytko. Allen said Mrs. Wytko has a lot of good ideas and knows how to deal with youth. That's what makes her so speciaI. Much like BSU, Mecha Club empha- sized participation in school and com- munity activities as the primary goal. Providing social fellowship for those interested in the Hispanic cul- tures and language is the purpose of O X5 Spanish Club. Or1e: Mecha Club sponsor Mrs. Varela sits in on a club meeting.
