Because Watson answered Bell, the senior hotline lives High School Survey. Question 13: What was the most popular question asked by seniors on a Friday? Answer: 'What's going on this week- end?' After the inquiry had been passed around from 7:45 to 2:20. everyone went home to start the hotline on that convenient invention, the telephone. The most exclusive hotline of all was the ‘Senior Hotline.' It started out with just one phone call, senior to senior of course. Then it went on as a geometric progression involving more and more members of the class of '81. It often took quite a while to get the itinerary fully straightened out. For example. Diane started out by calling Karen regarding the rumor of a ‘Seniors Only' party. Karen, wanting to know about the news, phoned another senior. Kevin. Before Kevin could gel back to Karen he had to call Scott but he was on the phone with Rob so while Kevin waited to talk to Scott he called Jodi who had Amy over but they weren't sure of any senior activities yet. The confusion went on but eventually it all got straightened out. An important aspect of the Senior Hotline was keeping the conversations a secret from the underclassmen until the good times were over and had become idle Monday gossip. After all. many seniors felt it a class duty to have a good time amongst themselves and give the future seniors something to look forward to. Whether the activity was boo-thockey. a movie, a basketball game or a wild and crazy party, the seniors were in on it thanks to the Senior Hotline.
