All sailors at one time or another are stricken with a familiar feeling known as seasickness. This feeling is brought on by many factors: never ending classes, forget- ting a physics lab was due or just wanting to be with friends. A reflection of these sudden attacks is expressed on the faces of some of our classmates. In the center picture we have a perfect example of extreme anguish which leads to the bizarre behavior of Mike Holmes and Brian Lemoff. Around the halls, we see the shocked look of Debbie Concaugh when her locker opens after only four tries (see picture at right), and some joyful expressions after an enlight- ening class (see Bonnie MacLean and Bob Twombly in photos below). Underclass- men who are not used to this type of thing may sometimes go overboard (see pictures on far right), while seniors have an easier solution — they simply give up (Dan Rob- inson). With seniors, however, it is usually hard to tell whether they are really seasick or not. Despite the strange reactions students get from being seasick, these off-guard moments helped add variety and humor to our voyage.
