Going away to college - im- portant for decision making and self supporting and independence . Mrs. Shannon has some advice to students about life . ' 'jesus stated it best - - - 'Love one another' - - - even those who seem to dislike you, truly love each other from the heart. Also, don't be afraid to love life . God didn't make us to be serious and down on ourselves and the world, but to be happy. ' ' Why did Mrs. Shannon get into teaching? ' 'I'm a teacher be- cause l really enjoy workingwith'children' of all ages, from 0 to 105, try- ing to help them better themselves so they become better people and leam to enjoy living.

Dedicated, inspiring, funny, ear- ly, late , interesting - what can we say about the faculty? Our words are inadequate. Rather than use our words to write about the faculty, we have chosen to let the faculty write about them- selves. Each teacher was given a questionaire . Some of them filled them out. We have quoted liber- ally from their answers, which range from ridiculous to inspiring . We hope you enjoy their com- ments. As you read the answer by Mr. Herzog, you will recognize a World History teacher. ' 'l don't characterize any historical person- age as myself, but two individuals I do admire and even emulate to a small degree . They are Sir Thomas More and Sir Winston Churchill. Both men possessed a massive capacity to use knowledge and insight to solve the problems of their day. Both men had the ability to articulate their positions by mastering the written word and spoken word . ' ' MR. DOEPKE: History, German, Golf. HI TORY REQUIRE TH1 KI G CAP R. FASZHOLZ IS PREPARED MR.
