School and College School is the place most people spend 12 to 16 years of their lives, lis- tening to educated teachers tell them what they should know. What each person learns is a different situation altogether. Even though high school is usually considered dull or boring, each fall returning underclassmen find themselves anxious to begin classes. Their reasons vary from wanting to see friends again to yearning for the year to be over more quickly. - Seniors meet the time to choose a college with much indecision. After a selection is made, scholarship forms arrive to be filled out and sent in. With the forms come spring and senior- itis. The urge to be free and get a full- time job or to further their education becomes more and more intense as graduation approaches. During high school years personali- ties develop and mold into mature adults. College provides the opportu- nity to express more openly those ide- als one has previously acquired.
