Style rains here Diversity is the Key While diversity prevented the development of strong clothing trends at Southwest, fashion was still evident. For girls, mini-skirts (sometimes micromini) were back strong, especially in denim. Hair bows and BLACK came back. Labels had less prestige as their presence was more widespread. Oversized shirts were still worn. For guys, it was another year of rolled up, tom, and tapered jeans. The presence of baseball caps and t-shirts sporting popular labels was great. Levi jeans were still extremely popular. Unisex trends included the ongoing popularity of university athletic wear. Tie-dying everything proved to be fashionable. Jeans were of all types: black, frosted, stonewashed, standard blue, faded, old, and ripped. The true difference in 1987 was the presence of Twins wear, showing our pride in our World Champs! nikkl has a style all her own Honda has on the more mainstream outfit. 14 notice the carring, stylish, huh?

The students other life. Life outside of school You may be wondering what the students at Southwest do once the last bell rings at 1:50. Despite popular belief, we do not rush home and do our homework. Some of the rebellious students choose, instead, to have FUN! For example, there are many extracurricular activities that the students get involved in, such as, the Aquarian, the Channel, Mosaic, Debate Team, and for all the jocks, there are sports. Although these activities keep the students occupied during the week, what arc they supposed to do after friday rolls around? The majority of the Southwest student body reply to this question with a simple statement, PARTY! But that's not the only thing that qualifies for weekend fun. There's bowling at Biltmore Bowl, eating at Edincr, Perkins, Burger King, Rocky Roccoco’s. Malt Shop, or ordering pizza at home? Shopping is a weekend sport for many girls and boys, such places like Southdale, Calhoun Square, The Conservatory downtown, or 50th n France. For those who may be short on money, a nice walk around our beautiful lakes or a quiet talk with a friend. With so many things to do on the weekends, two days hardly seem long enough time to accomplish them. Just when you're relaxed and used to the swing of things during the weekend, Sunday rolls around and it's time to do HOMEWORK!! Sunday is known as the Official Homework Day. It's the day set aside for doing the homework that is due the following day. Alas, Monday rolls around and it's time to go back to school. The only thing that the students think during the week is, I can't wait 'til Friday. 16 The students are TREK from school for the dayl!
