Preece, Robin Lynn Louisa Queen, Karla Louise Louisa Quillen, Larry C. Neon Ratcliff, Tommi Carolyn Salyersville Razor, Lisa L. Salt Lick Kise: and F riends iiThe people are great! Paula Kise of Louisa, Kentucky has come to this conclusion about the college scene at Morehead State. Paula is a sophomore Home Economics major who in her spare time is a computer assistant at Reed Hall. She enjoys dealing with people of all sorts, especially children. HThe size of our college is ideal for meeting other students, says Paula. College provides teenagers a place to grow and become the person they want to become. Paula lives in Morehead's first co-ed dorm, Mignon Tower, and feels there isnit much difference but makes for a good adjustment for the outside world that we'll face in the future. iilt's nice to see guys around for a change; they're good conversationalists, voiced Paula. College is not only for an education but also for friends. By WENDY RUMFORD Richardson, Stephen Todd Cynthiana Roberts, Dave E. Wallingford Rodgers, Thomas C. Cynthiana Rose, Sheila G.

Its formal name is Chemical Abuse Resolutions Lie in Education, but the at- mosphere in the classroom is anything but formal. Hackett said, iiWe donit want to teach. We try to come to them on a positive level with two-way communication. We don't want to lecture to them like teachers and parents; we want to be someone they can Project Charlie talk to about how they feel. Hackett is joined in this voluntary drug- prevention program by Amber Elkins, Jana Huggins, Brent Sparks, Dwight Clough, Bruce McDaniels, Julia Trone, Abbey Pin- son, David Nelson, Tanya Nichols and Robin Webber. The four main points they wish to em phasize are; 1. long prevention of drug abuse; 2. establish a positive self- awareness in the youth; 3. learn com- munication skills with peers, teachers, and family; 4. strive toward positive, not negative action.
