But few people knew who put it out. and how much work the staff members put into it. Our school newspaper was published by Ms. Clark ' s fourth period Journalism class. Both Bonnie Basu and Yu-Chien Kuo, the co-editors, agreed with Salima Hashim, the editor, when she said, It ' s not like a regular class. There ' s a lot of satisfaction working together as a team. And there was a lot of work to do. Every month Ms. Clark, the advisor, headed up a brainstorming session, where the staff decided on stories to write. The staff then had to research and write their articles so the typist, Marie Spellman, could enter them into the computer. They started out with only one computer, but A.S.B. provided them four more, so it would be more efficient and they would have more time to add to the little extras, like boarders and pictures. The cost per month to print the Blue and Gold was about $200 to $250 for 1300 newspapers. They raised the money by selling ads to local businesses and participating in Bingo. A.S.B. also contributed about $1400 to the Blue and Gold to help with the printing costs. printing costs. As if keeping on top of the newspaper was not enough to do, Journalism class also had the job of organizing the Senior Magazine. The magazine editor Tammy Munson said, we started earlier this year because typing everyone ' s senior will is time consuming. Ching Liu and Chrysti Ebersol also added that the Senior Magazine had to be edited of obscene words and derogatory remarks. And though everyone on the staff agreed that it seemed like the work never stopped, they also agreed that in the end, it was worth the effort. Front: Marie Spellman. Yu-Chien Kuo, Salima Hashim.
