Mine wasn't done. I hadn't even started. I thought to myself. What do I do now 'T Do I put it in the back of my locker and hope that it will gather moss rather than a teacher's red ink marks? Stay up all night writing, getting hand cramps and bloodshot eyes? Or, call into school 'sick' and spend the whole day writing what should have been written and typed during the past seven weeks? These were the thoughts of many students who had waited until the last possible minute to do an assign- ment or project. When a person waited until the oo Late to Turn In. Junior Chuck Pistole shows classmate David Brownson an English assignment of his that was never finished. Procrastination is a problem for many students who never got around to it. last minute to do something, they often complained that they didn't have enough time. They used the over-worked excuse, It's at home. but it is done, or they simply didn't do it. It,s quite common for people to wait even though it is slothful, irresponsible and non-caring, said senior Jason Benson. Pressure to get something done was often set upon the student's shoulders. When pressure was in- volved, some students couldn't do as good a job. HI think that is human nature, commented Mrs. Pam Maisano, English teacher. g'Some people work better under pressure and others it ruinsf' Waiting not only caused problems for students, but for teachers as well. Some wouldn't accept late papers. Other teachers took off points or accepted the paper and put a grade of 0 on it. I f be a ra 4 .

M M E G I M M Students habitually mooch off others. 44 left my homework at home. Could I...?,' Hey you, in the yellow shirt. 1 need some paper. Gimme...,' I forgot to ask my mom for money. Do you think you could. Students borrowed many things, from a quarter for a coke to a piece of paper for classwork to a ride home from school. Borrowing, lending and repaying were very different, though, from mooching, grabbing and welshing. I don't mind loaning money as long as I am paid back, saidjunior Melissa Vester. Many students loaned paper, pencils and books to anyone in their classes. But when it came to homework, money or a lift after school, they were more dis- criminatory. Those who were always welching from others often found that after several times of not paying their debts, no one would loan them 166 15ZQEZing anything. I don't loan to just any bum, stated junior Robert Darrow. I will usually loan things if it is someone l know will repay me.', Students not. only borrowed things from other students, but also from teachers. Some teachers wouldn't loan school items because many times these weren't returned. After several times of losing pens, pencils and giving paper to students, it became an expensive loan. lt doesn't bother me to loan pens or books, but it is the retuming that bothers me, explained Mrs. Pauline Cable, English teacher. Students didn't mind loaning things a few times, but it began to irritate them after several loans. etting a Loan. Junior Ann Hamil, looking for a piece of paper, asks if junior Kevin Haynes can loan her a couple of sheets. Students borrow everything from money to answers and homework.
