They worked hard and ardently often giving up possible moments of relaxation to complete an English theme, a physics dia- gram, an activity assignment. They enjoyed themselves when circumstances called for it and did it as a unit, for working together en- tails having fun the same way. Spring does not stop a seniofs curiosity.
