It takes concentration to be a member of a math team that wins. It takes energy to yell so loud and Q long that the football team is in- spired to put the overconfident 1 Pearce Mustangs in their place with a 14-14 tie. i RICHARDSON is different. Dif- i ferent because we seem to have an extra allowance of guts, determina- l tion, concentration and energy. And l because it all circulates through halls uncluttereed by tight cliques. There are smiles enough to go i around for most everyone. You can l be whatever you want to be here: all l you have to do is work at it. l i l i l l E 3 l l l l l I l Berkner .

Put 2,225 teenagers in a red brick building and all you have is just another high school, right? RICHARDSON is different. We're 2,225 individuals growing up together while we learn. We're a lot of special people who are part of the tradition that is RHS. lt is a tradition of academic and athletic excellence that is nearly a hundred years old, the kind not found in other .RISD schools. It is also a tradition of exuberant school spirit that provides support not only for the football team but for other sports like wrestling and for any school-related activity: a GSL-Key Club car wash, a Student Council dance in the Eagle's Nest, or a band or orchestra concert. But it is also a tradition to be dar- ing because it isn't easy to be dif- ferent. RICHARDSON is different because its students can be and are different. 0 U 2 if is 9 1 Q an All si' ft.
