Perhaps the most drastic change that the first year student encountered was speech class. Although the frosh may have quickly overcome the fears of giving a speech, he still had to master the more important task of maintaining his composure while confronted with the insanity of ludicrous facemaking and flying projectiles. Those lucky enough to have Fr. James Lewis as a teacher often noticed the need for more frequent trips to the barber shops as a result of the teacher's violent hair-pulling techniques. Surprisingly enough, most students had to adjust the least in Mr. Loparo's class, probably because of the unbroken tranquility which was present. Tyrants such as Mr. Benander, Mr. Pasko, and Mr. Gladstone made the frosh’s job even more difficult. '78 Experiences Ignatian Education Atmosphere 24

The member of the class of 78 is no longer the unsure and lost visage which just eight months ago was indicative of his daily life. A feeling of comfort and confidence now exists where uncertainty and aloneness once prevailed. Sure, the frosh suffered through many hours of tedious toiling, but by enduring this grueling workload he has become a seasoned Ignatian. He is proud of this fact. The class of 78 experienced a drastic metamorphosis, from the assemblage of timid fledgelings on orientation day to a unified body of spirited young men. The freshmen displayed enthusiastic spirit throughout the year, not only at the infamous frosh rally, but also through consistant successes in athletic competition and school projects. 26
