A Tradition Throughout The Years The 1987-1988 school year began by the freshman class of 1991 being initiated into the school. Freshman initiation has been a school tradition throughout the years and this year was no different. The freshman were a little nervous at first but by the end of the week they were used to being humiliated by the seniors. At the Mount the initiation activities started on Mon- day as Baby Day. Tuesday was Sign Day where the seniors had to show their creativity. Wednesday was Grandma and Bag Lady Day. Thursday was Nerd Day. And Friday the Freshman had to “BE NICE TO BIG SISTER.” Maur Hill started their initiation off with Sign Day. Tuesday was Air Raid Day. This is when you would see the freshman guys on the ground more than you would see them standing. Thursday the freshman were treated as real Maurites on Hail all Freshman Day. Friday was Hail all Seniors Day. By the end of the week the freshman were glad it was over and they were already thinking of the many things they will do to their little brothers and sisters their SENIOR year. Kim Schneider, Judy Jackman and Krista Cameron Gilley pleads for mercy from his big Gehring try to smile their way out of being tor- brother, tured by their big sisters. They found out it didn’t help. U M 6

Students head to the roost for a little R R. Julz Dulle, senior, stands nonchalantly alone by a throng of senior an- imals. Combining hand and eye coordination, the cheer- leaders fire the fans up. The fans stick with it and cheer their football team on to victory.

Freshman Initiation Jamie Forge models her up-to-date fashion. Chris Schuele looks on as Dan Pombo and Colin Tuley exercise their seniority over freshman Dennis Griffin. Christy Munsen, Cyndy Andra and Bridget O’Neal laugh as their little sisters make fools of themselves. Brian Harris and Jeff Schuele look down at the ground because they are ashamed of being a Freshman. Krista Gehring and Kim Schneider laugh as they are forced to roll down “the hill.” Many Fresh- man were found doing this during initiation.
