2’s company N A Jlew versus old, tra- ditional versus modern, were comments generated when Sterling and Lee shared the campus. As the two Baytown groups were combined, mixed emo- tions about this were re- vealed. Jimbo Lamb, a junior, said. “I think it's a good experience. It's only right to let Lee use our cam- pus. Theda Lazard. a sen- ior. added, I think it’s wonderful. It makes you feel that if we try. we can cooperate with one anoth- er. However, not everyone enjoyed sharing the cam- pus. Jeff Swonke, sopho- more. exclaimed, I don't like Lee using our school because we have to get here so early! Michelle Williams, a senior, reluc- tantly said. I don't like it, but I guess it’s alright. Many remained neutral. They found both the good and the bad in the situ- ation. It dosen’t bother me at all. After all, we went to elementary school to- gether ... , stated Trevor Smith, a senior. Overall, most enjoyed getting out of school early but didn’t like having to be at school early. Lewanda Gilbert, soph- omore, exclaimed. I really like our half-day schedule since it gives me plenty of time to run around and take care of errands. Those with jobs also ben- efited: Some could even work a full eight-hour day. As for Lee students, many of them really didn’t mind sharing Sterling. Duke Gobert. a junior at Lee, explained, It really doesn’t matter to me as long as I graduate, though I would like to go back to Lee. Michael Rouse, a Lee senior, added. It’s alright except for the parking, even though I really don't enjoy it. There are some things in life you just have to do! The Lee students felt that jobs were a hard thing to find, with such odd school hours. Deneene Kelly, a Lee senior, added, It's hard to find a job when you need to work such weird hours. Many of the things Lee students did not like about Sterling were that, unlike Lee, Sterling has no win- dows in the classrooms. The parking lots were also a problem since many Sterling students did not vacate the campus due to after school activities. Overall, sharing the Sterling campus was not as bad as everyone has im- agined it would be, con- cluded Karen Smith, a sen- ior at Sterling. 10 .. . Sharing our Space
