ASH I 'UT tl Students Adapt to 41' g, 1- a ,,, . l F New Regulations As Tivy Undergoes Policy Changes Along with the new buildings and new faces came several new school policies. Most of these were taken positively by students, but some caused a bit of confusion. Among these changes disliked by the students were some dealing with student behavior in the parking lots. No longer could we sit in our cars before school started or at lunch. This was because of some reported misuses of the privilege such as vandals, littering, and fighting. Teachers were even assigned patrol areas to make sure students weren't loitering in the parking lots. Another change in campus policy was in the area of assemblies. Because of bad behavior in previous years' assemblies, the frequency of getting out of class to attend a program in the gym or other gatherings was severely diminished. The first assembly, outside of pep rallies, came in early February with the Air top 1eftThayne Ferris rents his back out as a billboard for sports information. bottom Maggie Rubey, junior, knows a secret, top right A crowd gathers in the circle to await the afternoon buses. Force Band. Another change came with the distributing of yearbooks. In previous years, students received the books after second period and had the time from then until 5th period free to leave campus, sign the books and view them with friends. But this privilege was also taken away because of bad behavior and safety hazards. Reportedly, many students used this time to go to Ingram Dam or some other place and do everything but sign or look at yearbooks. So this year only 4th period Qand lunchj was given for Antler Time. Policy changes such as these have occurred every year. But it seemed there was more than usual this year. It took some time to get used to the changes but after a few months of school, we were pretty used to the new Tivy. Detours 17

Noise, Confusion Interrupt Classes, Construction Changes Our Campus As students filed into the halls early last fall for the first day of school, so began the first day of construction. Hammers pounded, machines revved, and workmen were everywhere as the face to Tivy's campus underwent major renovations. Funds for the project were appropriated th rough a bond election held last year. These funds went towards several different areas of construction. Probably the largest and most looked forward to new building was the Fine Arts Center which went into the area between the gyms and the main building. This was to house a band hall, a library, a choir room, a drama room, and an art room. The band hall was a much needed addition to our campus as the use of Peterson junior High's band hall brought many complaints from ba nd members because of the dangerous drive back to Tivy and the lack of sufficient parking places left in the crowded lots. Also being added to the campus was a Math wing. This one story structure was under construction in the area between the main building and the science hall. A new Auto Mechanics building was begun behind the science hall parking lot. This would house the Tivy mechanics classes and their projects. Ending the perennial freshman elevator pass joke was the real thing. An elevator went up at the west end of the science hall in an effort to aid handicapped students. Though a little distracting at the beginning of the year, we all became used to the construction after a while and looked forward to the new buildings and additions it would bring to our campus. fi ti .
