We could not help but feel apprehensive and unsure about how things would work out. Yes, busing created an uneasiness among everyone, and the solution to that uneasiness certainly did not come overnight Indeed, both faculty and stu- dents combined their every effort into making the transition smoother. And instead of letting it defeat us, we chose to fight back in the true spirit of those who can accept the things which they cannot change. We strove to prove that it could work, but only if we were willing to make it work. In doing so, we successfully shat- tered what seemed to be an unbreaka- ble barrier At first glance, it may have appeared that this was an impossible task. Each student was unique; everyone pos- sessed a different color, shape, and personality. Looking back, it seemed that we were the pieces of a puzzle and our job was to see that the puzzle would be completed. We arranged the pieces one way and when we failed, we would try another until, by the end of the year, all of us found the place where we would fit in. Regardless of where we were from or what we were like, we found that we could exist side by side. It was by putting the pieces together that we learned an important lesson. We discovered that even though each of us was a seperate, individual piece, we would always be a part of that com- pleted puzzle.
