On November 14 Tippecanoe Val- ley High School once again held its annual Swap Day. Excitement filled the air. People rushed around hur- riedly trying to get to class before their 5 minutes were up, because if they were late they would be tardy. It was certainly a day to remem- ber, as far as parents, students, and teachers were concerned. The par- ents were having trouble trying to get lockers open and trying to find where their next class was supposed to take place in the building. Stu- dents ended up being late to class af- ter helping the parents find books and all the other things that one might need to be prepared for their next class. The students seemed to enjoy the day, even though they had to be nicer than usual. They even got a few laughs along the way. As for the teachers, they found the day quite interesting to finally meet some of their students' parents. It was quite a challenge to find out how much the parents could re- member and to see how much they had forgotten in the years they had been out of school. For some of them, it brought out how they had missed going to school and how much they wished they were back in school working frantically on their homework assignments and wor- rying about who was going to ask or to be asked out for a date. 16
