I I -W.. ,,.,,- ,,., . I ,av at I 'IQ' I'Ve Been Caught! Laura Miller staff The big, fat, red zero usually accompanies a test paper that was copied. And if pretty lucky. Depending on what type of test you were caught cheating on and how many previous times you had been brought in for questioning on this of- fense, you could get five days suspension. But it's for sure you'll get life on your record. Your school records show every of- fense you have commit- ted. I felt so sick when I got caught cheating in sixth grade I had to go home, Leann Adams said. Despite being con- demned or disapproved of, students still continue to cheat. Some students don't seem to be con- cerned about the conse- quences that follow their actions. I love it!, said Ricky Hall. Teachers shared some of the ways they've seen students cheat. 'I. answers taped on the back of sun- glasses. 2. answers on a piece of paper inside a clear ink pen 3. answers on a piece of paper inside a hat on the desk 4. answers written on the crystal of a wrist watch. Someone once wrote the answers on a piece of paper, rolled it around a cigarette, and then dropped it on the ground beside them, Mrs. Wil- cox said. So if you've been on a cheating binge, take heart and go on a guilt-free studying diet. This student realizes that cheating isn't the only way to get by on tests because he's discovered that studying will help. There really is no way to cheat in Home Economics, so this student contends to do her work by finishing to sew a piece of clothing. Sophomores 175

The Big Snooze People Editor This had better be the last time you are sent to me for sleeping in class ll You slowly slither out of the principal's office and go to class. You quietly go to your seat and suddenly your teacher announces that the class is going to discuss the life cycle of the common housefly. After only a few min- utes, your eyelids begin to feel as if they weigh a ton. You fight desperately to keep them open. The lec- ture seems to last forever as you fight to stay awake. Your head gets heavy and your eyes begin to burn . . . there's no use, you're gone. l don't try to fall asleep in class but sometimes it is just really boring, Marcie Woods said. lt is hard to stay awake when you were up all night doing homework, Paul Baer said. The only problem with sleeping in class, besides getting in trouble, is find- ing a comfortable place to lay your head. Most of the desks are hard and that makes it hard for you to sleep. However, if you're sleepy enough, any place will do. If I was tired enough, I could sleep anywhere, Sheila Benson said. It doesn't bother me to sleep on a desk but l'm al- ways afraid the teacher is going to see me and send me to the office, james Smith said. Finally, the bell rings and you yawn as you prepare to go to your next class. Then, you realize that there are no more classes for the day. You get on the bus, go home and go to zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz . . . Kenneth Owens carefully adds the fin- ishing touches to his latest creation in art, but it may only be a matter of time before he dozes off. 176 People Augh! The pressure! One student finds the best way to cope with homework in Mrs. King's Biology class is to sleep.
