A different look When the Stone Fort yearbook staff was selected in April 1987, we all had the same idea in mind--a different look for the yearbook. In the years past, the yearbook has had a conservative look. We wanted this year ' s book to make a bold statement. To do this, we knew we would have to use bold graphics, original ideas, a little imagination and a theme that would tie it all togeth- er. It is true you can think too much. That ' s what we were doing when we were trying to pick a theme. We brainstormed and speculated for about a week. Then during a staff meeting, one of the section editors said, How about Something Different ' ? And so our theme was born. Something Different explains the 1987-88 yearbook per- fectly. There are obvious changes throughout the book. Each section editor was free to pick and choose how she wanted to design her section. As such, each section has eye catching designs and bold, colorful graphics. Each section has its own personality. We tried to give everyone equal coverage, and to cover what they did, and who they are. There are changes in every section of the book, even the last 20 pages. So, before you scream, But that ' s not how they did it last year! Remember that it ' s quite intentional. It ' s Something Different.
