Stl iifh Juniors: moot fast food lt's l2:40 p.m. on a Wednesday afternoon. As students slyly begin to stack books on their desks, their thoughts wander from Algebra, history, or any other academic subject to Pizza Inn and Wendy's. At exactly 12:45, students race out to their cars and zoom out ofthe parking lot, only to be back in 30 minutes. What's wrong with this picture? The sight ofstudents going off campus for lunch on Wednesday has been a familiar sight to P.A.'s upper school students. In the past, however, the off-campus lunch privilege has been reserved for seniors only. But this year, on Wednesdays, the juniors went elsewhere to scarf down lunch. As part of a string of changes at P.A. the seniors received two days a week off- campus lunch and thejuniors received one day. Most ofthe juniors were content with the arrangement. I think it's fair that we get one day a week and the seniors get two. We'll get two when we're seniors, said junior Nancy Bush. I like it, said Chance Hoag, a junior who just moved from Atlanta. I'd never heard of anything like this where I came from. This is cool! Most juniors flocked to the fast food places near the base of Hinson Road. such as Wendy's, Burger King, and even Pizza Inn. While it appeared groups of girls all traveled together,the guys usually took their own cars as junior Brett Davis explained, I usually have to wait for people. so I go by myself and meet people there. Besides, he added jokingly, I might just go to Memphis for a steak. Even though this privilege was greatly appreciated, some juniors, such as Aaron Maune, thought some further changes ought to be considered. Suggested Aaron, I think seniors should be allowed to go off campus everyday, juniors three times a week, and sophomores and freshmen if they can find a ride. Despite the fact that 30 minutes did not seem long enough to accommodate off- campus lunch, the juniors agreed that this privilege broke up the monotony of school and was well worth keeping around. what will this buy? Junior Jason Neal wants to get the most for his money and still have it his way at Burger King during junior lunch out. K.K.
