Sophomores select courses, teachers, hours for '83-84 Great! I can finally take the courier I want to take and the hour: that I want to take them. Super! Now that I have fourth hour lunch I can .fee my j91'eud.f I wouldn 't ree otherwise. These are just a few of the comments made by sophomores after they experienced their first enrollment process of selecting their courses, teachers and hours for the next school year. Selecting classes for their junior year proved to be a giant step towards their own independence. If the sophomore's schedule did not work out with the schedule of classes offered, it was up to the student to meet with his counselor to straighten out the problem. Most students found that choosing their own courses and class hours was advantageous both socially and academically. Socially, choosing one's own classes allowed the student to take classes and share the same lunch hour with friends. Academically, the student was able to take the courses that would be beneficial in a planned area of study for future career opportunities. Unknown to many sophomores, an activity commonly called pulling cards had to be enacted before a student was officially enrolled in a course. Sophomores, like juniors, found this responsibility more difficult than choosing the actual course. just when I got all of my cards pulled except one, the course closed, said Sophomore Mac Bostic. It took me a while, but I got the classes I wanted for next year. il' Philip Olson Delyn Orr .Ion Osborn Shawna Osborn Devan Padma Tammy Parish Merrilee Parker Gordon Payne Deborah Pearson Elizabeth Pearson Glen Pearson Helen Peck Karen Perfect Lelonnic Pete Bretta Petersen Jamie Pettay Gina Phillippe Vivian Phillips Rickey Plank Christina Polly J-Mark Pool james Porter jill Porter Spencer Pottenger 180 ' Sophomores

It was not a call for alarm of eyes go- ing out of focus, but there were many twins that were wandering the halls. Some students noticed the sophomores were alive with eight sets of twins and surpassed the senior and junior twins by five sets. Sophomore twins were both identical and fraternal and had quite different personalities. Being a twin created minor pro- blems such as sharing, competing and developing companion- ship. Kara and I do compete in some ways, such as my jealousy of her grades, said Kim Woodward. But she has her thing and I have mine. Although the many sets of twins enjoyed their individuality, they also enjoyed a close friendship with their other half. I am closer to Matthew than my other sisters and brother because we are friends, we have classes together and we see each other in many different situations, said Lisette Cullinane, For jeff Cummings, being a twin did not mean a close rela- tionsip. We are very different and do not have much in com- mon, he said about his brother john. Sophomore twins were Bernice and Donald Collins, Lisette and Matthew Cullinane, jeff and john Cummings, Deena and Donna Cunningham, Brian and Bruce Gilchrist, Darryll and David Higgins, Lee and Fay Mathews, and Kara and Kim Wood- ward.
