SWW is a Part of Life Looking back over the past four years of our high school experience, one cannot forget all the researching that has been completed. This includes just about every aspect of our lives. Researching was de- manded from our school subjects such as history, psychology, biology, chemistry and just about every other subject taught in the high school. In addition though, there were aspects of research in other portions of our lives. It raised its head in sports, inter- personal relationships, adjusting to life in the high school and adjusting to a work environment. Research is a part of life. Researching history involves gath- ering factual information from the past in order to provide answers for the future. History class often pre- Caught at their locker during class without a cor- ridor pass are Laurie Woodford.

As detectives would, students had to be- gin by first gathering all the facts related to a historical incident. Then the facts had to be sifted to exclude those which did not apply directly to the incident. This type of researching taught us to put aside our value judg- ments, biases and prejudices when- ever we try to determine cause and effect. This relates to the manner in which we treat others. We try not to conclude the worth of a person by his first impression because we have learned that getting to know the per- son may prove that conclusion to be totally wrong. Research is a part of life. Researching our school’s popula- tion involves getting to know who we are. One cannot walk the halls of Quincy High nd Voc-Tech without no- ticing the increase in the number of students from other parts of the world. There are many students from China and southeast Asia, Spain and South America, as well as other parts of the world. Quincy has become a mini ‘melting-pot’of the world. We have all benefited from learning of our cultural differences. Researching the school also means looking at the different cliques that comprise the population. There will always be the ‘jocks,’ ‘hoodsies’ or ‘teeny-boppers,’ and the ‘AP students.’ Research is a part of life. Sports involves a large number of the student body. Commendable work has been accomplished by all especially the outstanding coaches and athletes who have worked so With the likes of Billy Idol and Michael J. Fox storing out at her.

Much of this, however, is due to the many hours of research which the coaches and ath- letes have done. Researching an up- coming opponent, analyzing their strengths and weaknesses in compar- ison to ours is a part of their lives. This happens everywhere from base- ball to wrestling. Research is a part of life. Our research ranged from the lat- est in clothing designs to the latest music. We switched from baggy cloth- ing to the denim look. Analyzing our Arriving at a party for Bryan O'Neil at Jennifer Fay's house, one can readily understand why some people consider Valeric Fen a terrific party person.

Some of us depend on our friends for information. Others look to GQ. Everyone has their own taste. The same can be said about our choices in music. One day we listen to Z94, the next its FNX. Rumor has it that at home, some of us are forced to listen to JIB or even WGBH-FM. Some of us are ruled by Rolling Stone, People, or Hit Parader. Re- search is a part of life. Computers are becoming ever more common. We encounter them everywhere. We learn to deal with these electronic wonders by research- ing them. We sit at the keyboard in front of the monitor whenever we find one around. We experiment with the commands we learned in our com- puter class, or when all else fails, we read the manual. It is all a part of learning. Research is a part of life. There are those times when we think we have found the person of our dreams. One had to get a date with that special someone. We began by :m m s sm :q photographs by Mr Charles Gliniewicz. Hyun Yoo. and Volerie Feri. story by Hyun Yoo.

learning which of our friends knew the special person. We asked all we dared to learn about that person. We planned an encounter. The little things that person liked were empha- sized. We tried to optimize the chances for a positive impression. Sometimes the work paid off and all went absolutely perfect. Other times we either made a bad choice or had a faulty idea about the person. We learned from our experiences. Re- search is a part of life. Decisions about drugs and alcohol fell upon us early. We listened to our friends, teachers, and parents. We were inundated with advertising from radio, television and newspapers. We read books and magazines. Eventu- ally, we made the decision which would be one of the most important in our lives. Happily, the vast majority of our class made the correct decision and stayed away from drugs and al- cohol. Research is a part of life. Here is our senior year.

Marianne McCormack. Patti Morrell. Gayle Morrell. Janet Morrell. Marion Miller and Renee Gauro determine the remainder of our lives. We have to choose how our edu- cation will continue. We have to de- cide our interests. We must choose a school or trade. We read about our possible career choices. We studied which school were best suited for us. We visited some of the schools. We spoke with parents, family, teachers, counselors, and most of all our friends. We attended college nights. This was our most difficult research. We learned that research is a part of life.
