First, I think that the hopes or expectations of last summer were too high. Many people expected the workshop to Change Woodward completely in many areas and almost overnight. That was expecting too much of just one summer's workshop. Most of the task forces in the workshop prepared a long, detailed report on their suggestions and plans. But to get these things really going you need another group of persons or that same group working again to take these sug- gestions one-by-one, then lay out a plan for putting them into effect. Looking at some of the task force ideas first, the PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT suggestions are simply impossible due to the fact that we can't get the money to do anything. In the area of CON- TROLS we have improved tremendously with the de- parture of most of the little 7th and 8th grade kids. Concerning COMMUNICATIONS, I don't think I've ever been any place Where people worked harder at communications from counselom to teachers to the P. A. I've also never been any place where we've had less success in getting ideas across. On the subject of STUDENT POWER Mr, Shrimpton has attempted to make Student Council a meaningful organization. He's put a lot of effort into it and given Mr. Craft the afternoons unassigned from teaching to work on it. It's easy to involve a few people in STUDENT POWER, but as you tryto bringin more people it gets tougher and tougher. Summing up, the workshop has done something already. It will continue to do some- thingas long as the workshop participants remain here and remain interested. The difficultywill be in keep- ing the interest alive when we aren't able to put very many ideas into practice Whether it's because of money or space limitations or lack of facilities. If we can't put the suggestions into effect or even try them out, I hope they Won't become discouraged.
