Taking Ourselves Seriously taking ourselves so seriously. A lot of people seem to get too wrapped up in school. They place too much importance on many things. Getting good grades. Winning the upcoming game. Scoring a 1400 on the SAT. Getting a date for Saturday night. All of these things seem life threatening. But why must everyone always take everything so seriously? With this idea in mind, we selected our 1988 theme, “Seriously.” As the cover suggests, we want to show the fun side of WC. We don’t want to ignore the serious things, but we would like to expose those infuriatingly serious students to the worthwhile, entertaining side of life that they are missing out on, possibly without even realizing it. We want to present things from a different angle to show the most positive, unusual aspects of life at WC.
