Most resisted, remind- ing themselves that rules were a small price to pay for the privilege of going to school. But there were always a few who had to pay the consequences, which, depending on the case, ranged from being kept a few minutes after class to being expelled. Principal Iames Smith said that punishments for major offenses were pre-set, and neglect to observe them could end in automatic suspension. He cited disrespect for authori- ties and fighting as the most serious types of offenses. He also said that leaving school without permission could lead to suspension. Students had their own ideas about how to solve the problems. Senior Carolyn Adams said that if Northeast would change to an open campus, students wouldn't be tempt- ed to skip. I'd be satisfied with having an open campus just during lunch, she said. Senior David Hoisager also said that open campus would reduce skipping. ' Other regulations were enforced, but did not involve such strict punishment. Chewing gum and eating snacks was not permitted anywhere except in the cafeteria. Iunior Ianna Iennings said that this rule was very inconvenient. My mind is connected to my stomach, she said. Carol Dimond J Golden Rules 21
