Sorting It Gut Lisa Berry Editor Seniors usually find great pleasure in spotting the wide-eyed sophomores in the crowd on the first day of school. It is obvious that they are actually excited about being at school! This year found more wide-eyed people than a few sophomores. Many new faces were shuffled into Mills this year, and it took a while to sort it all. I liked the idea of all the new people because I wanted to meet a lot of new friends, Tena Brooks said. Most of the senior class has been at Mills for their high school career. That's not true for the juniors and Sophomores, and Seniors were happy about the right to choose the school from which they would graduate. Some students feel like they should graduate from the school they have gone to. I'm really glad I'm getting to graduate from Mills. I feel like this is my home, Felicia Wilson said. 'l 'I4 People

PCOPIQ Editor Fame! l'm gonna live forever, l'm gonna learn how to fly l'm gonna make it to heaven, light up the sky like a flame, Fame! l'm gonna live forever, baby remember my name! Everybody would like to be famous so some of the members of the 1988 Mills Hall of Fame may agree with this verse because being selected for the Hall of Fame is an honor. Hall of Fame students were nominated by teachers, then all nominees were listed on ballots. Teachers give each student a rating and the students with the highest ratings were re- viewed bythe Hall of Fame 116 People committee which was made up of teachers. Then they were selected for The Hall of Fame. Being selected for the Hall of Fame means a lot to me. It makes me feel good to know that the faculty thinks so highly of me be- cause it could have easily. been the next person in- stead of me. lt is an honor and pleasure and l wouldn't change it for anything in the world, Monica johnson said. It is indeed a great honor to be selected, for this elite group of students have made their names known at Mills. Through dedica- tion, leadership, study and hard work these twenty students have earned the right to be in the Hall of Fame. l think that being named a member of Hall of Fame is a prestigious honor that has been be- stowed upon me. l feel touched that the faculty has chosen me to be an honoree, Gobrielle Fair said. Hall of Fame pictures were taken at Riverfront Park and though the wind was like a small hurricane, the fading sun blended well with the gazebo and fountain. lt's hard to follow be- hind last year's honorees but it's an ex honor to know you've done somt that left an impact on school, Brian Linn This recogniti showed some of the' students Mills had show.
