During the Senior year, a survey was taken of the members of the class as to what their future goals and plans were. Of the 64 students polled, 67% were planning to attend either a 2 or a 4 year college, 26% were planning to get a job, 5% were either getting married or al- ready married, and the other 2% were undecided as to what the future held for them. Here are a sampling of the results: Cheryl Wainwright — “I plan to go to college and get a degree in pharmacy, then open ‘Cheryl’s Drugs’.” Joseph Insley — “I want to become a fireman.” Linda Gilliland — “I intend to play pro- fessional tennis. Billy Rollins — ‘‘Get Rich!” James Hall — “Get wasted and raise X !X!! and party till the day I die!!

As graduation approached, the college-bound Seniors hurried to com- plete their plans for the next year. Ac- cording to Lori Poor, “There’s a lot to do!” Those who had not yet chosen a col- lege were finally forced to come to a de- cision. Virginia Tech was chosen by the largest number of Seniors (16) who plan- ned to attend college away from home; but many other schools were also selected. Some were as close by as Thomas Nelson Community College, others were as far away as the University of Florida and Brigham Young Universi- ty.
