RECREATION INTERFACES EUUCA TION Student Life keyed into summer fun, autumn colors, fashion music CIG ois. iscussing the activities class- mates participated in over the summer, ‘‘Under the Sun’, featured swimming, playing tennis and catching some rays. These pasttimes helped stu- dents deal with the unpleasant thought of returning to school. In the Fall, students tackled a “Blue and Gold Autumn” with the Bruton Panthers at Homecoming. The colors of autumn were drama- tized in an assortment of floats in- cluding clowns, ‘‘Bruton Busters’’ and flags of the world. Music lovers proved to be faithful to their favorite rock stars (Cyndi Lauper, Madonna, Pointer Sisters and Prince) by portraying them in their style of dress in ‘‘Fashion Beat”. Rockers were also serious about their sounds by possessing high perfor- mance high tech car and home ste- reos that were “Electrifying” to say the least. The zany and the unusual were ap- parent in everything from administra- tors with walkie-talkies to faculty members and students riding don- keys in ‘‘Not Necessarily Meadow- brook”’. To combat the monotony of rou- tine, students decorated their lock- ers, ‘‘Behind Closed Doors”’, with ev- erything from Smurfs to rock idol photos and Calvin Klein ads. When Spring arrived, Karen Tem- ple became the new Miss Meadow- brook, and the Junior Class spon- sored an elegant prom on May 11 at the John Marshall Hotel. As summer quickly approached, Seniors enjoyed Senior Week and its Multi-Educational Outdoor Exper- ience with lunch included. After re- ceiving their diplomas at Graduation, Seniors had only one thought on their minds — Beach. Student Life Divider 29
