Key to- Independence Senior Editors: CAROL ANN HOREY BETTY REUE

Page 20 text:

When seniors graduate, in effect, they win their independence from childhood and adolescence. During high school almost all the students live with their parents and depend upon them for financial and moral support. Certainly, many boys earn spending money by working after school and girls earn by baby-sitting, but after all, they aren ' t paying room and board and paying for all their clothes and necessities for life. After high school the person usually strikes out on his own, either to a job or to college. With this job or living away from home at college comes a new sense of responsibility and independence. New problems arise that must be solved alone. Parents can ' t help you make good on the job or at college; that is an individual problem. With the solving of these problems comes mental maturity and independence. Also, new responsibilities come along, new du ties to be done. The success in shouldering these responsibilities adds to the satisfying feeling of independence. Since the seniors are about ready to begin this new stage, open this new door, they are the Key to Independence
