Sponsored by the Youth for Understanding. Dan is the son of Alfred Synek and Anita Baecklund and is 18 years old. During his stay here Dan lived with Tom and Twilla Barlow. Dan has an interest in computer-programing and likes to go snow skiing. In school Dan studies Economics. English. Government. Advanced Biology and Sr. Math. When he returns to Sweden he will go for one year of mandatory military service, and he also hopes to study computer science in college. Dan presented several speeches about his homeland. These speeches were presented to: Delta Kappa Gamma. The Lutheran Men and Boys’ Banquet. P.E.O.. The Modern Mrs.. The Mariners and the Lions Club. Dan participated in track at school. Wayne State Math Contest, and he was also involved in Luther League. The thing Dan liked most about Randolph was the generous, friendly people. He also like the big. comfortable cars. In school he liked the good teachers. Dan was among 400 outstanding math students from Northeast Nebraska participating in the Sixth Annual Mathematics competition at Wayne State College. Dan was presented a plaque as third place winner in the senior math division. The result of placing third in the senior math division is a possibility Dan will be doing some private tutoring in math in the Sioux City area. Dan said he would like to return to Randolph for a visit as soon as he can afford it. As for the food he thought it was good — but one thing he didn ’t like was marshmallow salads. Dan said he would like to thank everyone for their fast acceptance of him and for their patience with his accent.

A new classmate, Margie Nichols, joined us and later in the year moved away. Our Freshman class officers were: Pres.-Randy Nelson, Vice Pres.-John Lackas, Sec.-Treas.-Joni Robinson, Student Council-Theresa Nannen, Sara Rudebusch, and Kevin Arens. Our class sponsors were Mr. Bradley and Mr. Baker. During our Sophomore year, we were joined by another student, Kelly Lackas. Our Sophomore year elected officers were: Pres.-John Lackas, Vice Pres.-Randy Nelson, Sec.-Treas.-Annette Thieman, Student Council-Mark Gubbels and Brian Bargstadt. Our class sponsors were Mr. Baker and Mr. Schnell. We began our Junior year with another new member, Carie Read, who moved at the end of the school year. Our class officers were: Pres.-Brian Bargstadt, Vice Pres.-John Lackas, Sec.-Treas.-Mary Bloomquist, Student Council-Mark Koehler and Larry Korth. Our Junior year homecoming theme was Walt Disney Characters. Our class window was entitled “Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Warriors.” Our magazine sales campaign for the Junior-Senior Prom was a great success, surpassing our goal of $4,000. Top salespersons were Pam Hay, Joni Robinson, Kirt Smith, and Randy Nelson. The Junior-Senior Prom was held April 28. The theme was “THE LONG AND WINDING ROAD. Our Prom colors were pastel green, yellow, and pink. Queen candidates were Theresa Nannen, Joni Robinson, Jo-lene Nordhues, and Mary Bloomquist. Mary Bloomquist was crowned Queen. Our Senior year class officers were: Pres.-Scott Andrew, Vice Pres.-Kevin Loberg, Sec.-Treas.-Barb Bloomquist, Student Council-Brian Bargstadt and John Lackas. The homecoming theme for this year was the “Main Event”. Our window was entitled “Every Which Way But Lose.” We received second place for our window. Queen candidates for homecoming were Jolene Nordhues, Theresa Nannen, Joni Robinson, and Kelly Lackas. King candidates were Kevin Loberg, Kelly Isom, John Lackas. and Mark Koehler. Crowned King and Queen were Kevin Loberg and Jolene Nordhues. Prior to ordering announcements, our class motto - THE DAWN HAS BROUGHT US THIS FAR, WHERE WILL THE SUNSET FIND US? - our class colors. Red and Silver - and our class flower, the Red Rose - were selected. Candidates for the Sweetheart Ball this year were Elizabeth Hammond, Theresa Nannen, Joni Robinson, and Kelly Lackas. King candidates were Mark Koehler, Kelly Isom, Scott Andrew, and Brian Bargstadt. This year’s Sweetheart royally was Theresa Nannen and Brian Bargstadt. Prom was held May 3rd. Candidates for King were John Lackas, Larry Korth, Scott Andrew, and Mark Koehler. John Lackas was crowned King. Our class sponsors for our Junior and Senior years were Mr. Bradley and Mr. Schnell. This year was also special to us because we were fortunate to have a foreign exchange student, Dan Synek from Gothenburg Sweden, joined us for our Senior year. We hope that he enjoyed his stay here in Randolph and that he doesn’t stereotype all American students by our standards. Special recognition was given the top ten students of the class of 1980. They are: Valedictorian - Diane Creamer, Salutatorian - Lynell Bermcl, Mark Koehler, Barb Bloomquist. Joni Janssen, Sara Rudebusch, Doug Haselhorst, Randy Nelson, Jolene Nordhues, and Joni Robinson. And so one chapter of our life ends, but as we look back on it we must keep in mind that another chapter has already opened. - Our motto stated that our future is uncertain and it is. But after being with my classmates almost all of my school years, I think that I can speak for all of us when I say that the future is going to be the best that it can be because we are going to give it the best that we can. 76 Seniors Awarded Scholarships Lynell Bermel: Regents Scholarship, Honors Program, UN-L.
