Seniors Senioritis plagues exiting class Dazed by the many new privileges bestowed on them as seniors and the prospect of a long-awaited in- dependence, many students have caught what is commonly known as senioritis Although not fatal, this disease can affect a student's performance in school as well as out. Suddenly, he finds himself no longer as underclassman, but an up- perclassman who is above it all. The Class of 1981 was no excep- tion. It wasn't that my motivation ran out, it was just simply that after three years of hard work, I felt I deserved a break, ' commented Senior Lynn Mandell. Staying awake in class was a chore. Z-attacks came often as teachers struggled to keep the attention of their students. Textbooks were left in the lockers as seniors sought to avoid the image of students Senioritis, a refinement of the seven-year itch, was demonstrated in many ways. Studying for tests became a thing of the past. Atte dance at sports games increased a attendance at school decreased le cept when the seniors start counting exemptions.l Seniors we scarce at libraries, but available partying on weekends. As the year progressed, the senio anticipation of their final days Memorial could be felt in the ha By the time graduation roll around, I was really ready to get ou stated Karen Couch. Restlessness abounded. Anythi seemed better than the classroo The cafeteria became deserted w the absence of seniors and when t bell to go home sounded, stude raced to leave. Wherever they go, the Seniors 1981 will benefit from this perience. I think senioritis is g because it allows each student become more independent. This dependence will help us in colleg said Senior Shari Hart. 1:U by Leslie Si 176 O Seniors
