fl gt Issues draw interest W? M UQZAM Whether it was by working, volunteering, or attending a Ne- braska football game, community involvement played an important role in students' lives. Citizenship Issues, a senior require- ment, was a key factor in getting students working in the community. ln order to graduate, seniors had to put in 20 hours of volunteer time in some organization. When you volunteer, you learn more about your community and you realize how many programs are available to you as a citizen, said senior Heather Horacek, who volunteered as a Red Cross swim teacher. The November elections offered a good chance for students to volun- teer during campaigning. Some chose to volunteer to fill their Cit Issues requirement, while others did it just for the learning experience. Senior Rachelle Becker began volunteering for the Helen Boosalis campaign lastsummer.As campaign time got closer, she was promoted to Student Coordiator for Southeast, which made her in charge of getting volunteers to put up yard signs and A campaign of another kind!! , C ,lk A 'S , was started by senior Scott Wrigh' 'V Z 5 257 l . .
