But not you, you ' d rather spend your vacation at a workshop or a clinic or some other school related program. That ' s the way a summer instituter is. There are all kinds of places for you to go and things for you to do. A lot of colleges hold institutes for high school students. Interested in theater? Last year a few students went to Northwestern to their institute for theater. I.U. offers a variety of programs to the high schooler including courses on physics, math, anthropology and futurology. A few students went to a journalism workshop in Minnesota to learn new yearbook ideas. Of course there was the usual trip to Germany for four kids. If you have a knack for athletics the F.C.A. has a camp that offers sports that Munster students enjoy. Or there is a gymnastic workshop in Michigan. Last but not least cheerleaders and majorettes have the traditional summer camp to go to learn new routines and cheers. With all these choices it ' s sometimes hard for the brains and talent of Munster to decide where to go. Summer Instituters 21

Autumn— The browns, oranges, and golds of nature ' s sunset laugh at us as we sit in school. Mellow days and nights scented with burning leaves. Homework is forgotten for new TV shows. A final spin on the ten-speed, or just a cruise. With a winning tennis team and a conference football championship, there is always someone to cheer for. And the floats have to be finished-a good excuse for staying out until two in the morning. Of course, Munster was as boring as ever, so all types of escape routes were tried. An IU week-end, all-night poker smokers, Chicago rock concerts, unbelievably wild parties, broadening romantic interests to outside of Munster, or just cruising to the sounds of the big 89 were favorite pastimes. Sometimes, we knew exactly what we wanted but there are limitations— like paren ts of our best friends, the Munster policemen. Besides, burning down the school is illegal. Autumn 23
