Interview with Mr. Morel hi :ord: Why did you come to T.C.S.? rel: Basically, for a job. Actually, I have just ne from seven years at Queens in Kingston, 1 once you have lived near the water you can- leave it. I was initially interested in oceano- phy, so I guess there is still some attraction t :ord: How does boarding school life rate with ir expectations? A rel: It is really quite a radical change from wat I have been exposed to. At first I felt there much demand made on your time: the duties ng at such varied hours, and so forth, but now alize how well spent it can really be. I find I 1 help with homework or just get to know the bt s better when I am on night study; it is real- 1; enjoyable though it can be quite energy con- jning. :ord: How are you adjusting? rel: Really quite well. At times I feel it is ier to associate with the boys than with the ff because of the age difference and the ex- w s I periences that can be shared. Maybe “identify” is the word. Record: What interests and activities are you interested in pursuing here? Morel: I really hope I can get involved in the Cross-Country Skiing program for I have really done a lot of it over the last couple of years. Run- ning is another hobby of mine and I really hope to contribute this spring to the track team as I understand I will be a coach. Record: You like to run? Morel: Sure. There is nothing like it for relaxa- tion. I have hopes for setting up a Hundred Mile Club of some form or another in the last term. Running can really be fun if you go about it in the right way; running against the clock only feels good when you stop, whereas running at your own speed, on your own time, feels good the whole time. I like to have several routes open, so, depending on how I am feeling, I can choose the distance I wish. Anything less than five miles does not really feel worthwhile.
