Break Rules Take Punishment Or Vacation Whenever a group of people get together there are bound to be problems, and Northeastern was certainly no excep- tion. The troubles that did arise,however, were dealt with in some way, whether conventionally or radically. Among the more conservative of methods employed was the debut of the Youth Advisory Council fthe YAC groupj. This group, composed of five students, handled problems dealing with the cafe- teria conditions and the food served. Suggestions were made by students in a quest for continued excellence of food selection and taste. Student Congress members were also important parts of disciplinary actions within Northeastern. When twelfth graders abused the privileges of the Senior Court, representatives voted the area closed throughout the winter. In another of what are becoming annual punish- ments, the Nickel Deal was reinstated as students showed themselves to be incapable of emptying lunch trays. Perhaps the most dramatic of Eagle problems was the sit-in staged by close to one hundred students in February. Acting on behalf of a classmate, pupils boy- cotted classes and elected representatives to pen a letter to the School Board in a move that drew front page DAILY ADVANCE coverage.
