Ecarders Settle In The beginning of a new school year is a period of change and adjustment for students everywhere. Many students that board at the Academy and Maur Hill have a more than average amount of adjusting to do. They must cope with the loss of summer freedom and the binding restrictions of school life and homework. Boarders must also adjust to living away from their homes and families, getting to know a whole new group of friends, and functioning in a school that is en- tirely foreign to them. Many boarder students have to ad- just to a new country, with its customs and traditions. An action-packed Wednesday night at the Vitaya Possitmonthol concentrates on his homework. Watching T.V. is a popular pastime tor many boarders. Lunch is an important event in the life of Maur Hill students. 8 Student Life Settling in

The Year Starts Rolling The opening Academy assembly was August 25. The faculty was introduced to the student body by Sister Rebecca. Date: August 24, 1981 Time: 7:55, A bell rings in the halls of Maur Hill and the Academy which started the first day of school. This was the start of a year full of changes. An improved campus, rising class spirit, and an attempt to unify the foreign and American students are at the top of the list. Opening assemblies were held at both schools. The Academy held theirs on August 25. Maur Hill held theirs on August 26. Opening Masses were held August 26 for the Academy and August 31 for Maur Hill. The first pep rally, September 11. was held on the hill between Maur Hill and the Academy because of gym renovations. The opening of school was both a blessing and a curse. For some, it meant the end of summer work, for others it mean the beginning of work. Some saw it as an opportunity for socializing, while others saw it as end of summer freedom. Undoubtedly, school meant both work and seeing old friends. As Jodi Durkin, Atchison junior, put it, ‘‘I was looking forward to coming back, but I forgot how much work was involved. The opening of school meant it was time to have pictures taken. The freshmen here are waiting for their turn. The first pep rally was held outside because of gym renovations. The cheerleaders do a routine. Student Life School Opening 7
