Diversity o f As Maria walks P e o p l e down the hall at school, she feels like everyone is staring at her because she's black. It makes her feel very uncomfortable and insecure about herself. On the first day of her new job, she found another girl from school worked there also. Because of difficulties relating to discrimination,Maria was about ready to quit but decided to talk to her new friend first. The other girl realized that she and Maria had a lot in common and became friends. There are many people in this school who are not alike. People have different tastes,others act acertain way, some arejust loners, which often and unfortunately can catego- rize them into a clique. Take alook at the different types of people there are just at Hillcrest: Rockers,Stoners, Skaters, Preppies,Intellec- tuals,gay and straight, white and black, tall and short, and long hair and even no hair! Walking down the hall, if you are observant, you'll notice that some people are racist or biased against others. Many are afraid of homosexuals out of fear of contracting AIDS,some avoid African Americans or Mexi- cans. These people are different only because of the color of their skin or sexual orientation. They are still people that have agreat deal to contribute to our society. Face it! People are going to be different than you. The United States has often been called the melting pot ofthe world. That's what makes us the greatest nation on earth. We have all peoples,all types and all can be positive contribu- tors to society. On the other hand, as one teacher put it, \"If someone chooses a lifestyle that is not positive, they are the one that must suffer the consequences of their behav- ior,whether it be contracting the HIV virus or getting killed bybeing a member of a gang. But differences are good,they bring variety to alife that could beabore. We all have to live in this school together, whether you like it or not, so lets learn to deal with the differences.

That Ritual Dati-ngCalled Dating its not as easy as, \"Do you want to go to the dance.\" Over the years people have found wild and crazy ways to ask to the dances. Instead of just receiving a phone call, you now have to dig through flour, driveall over the valley, or pull balloons out ofthe sky. As thedance approaches you often over hear people talking about who they want to ask and how they are going to do it. We asked a few students, some creative approaches they took to ask or answer to the dance. For last years Valentines dance Aaron Young had to find a creative way to answer Jen Larson. Aaron answered by making a cake shaped like a heart with white frosting on it. On top of the cake he spelled out Every once in a while you get a per- contact with another, but they still yes with trick candles, then filled in the rest of the cake son who is afraid to make intimate want to get the message across. with regular candles. He then took the cake over to Jen'shouse and left it on her door step, and lit all the candles so when she came to the door she wouldn't be able to see the answer. Aaron made it so that when she blew out the candles, yes would light back up because of the trick candles. An anonymous source told us about the way he asked to one of the dances last year. \"James\" and another friend, drove over to this girls house \"Jane\", to see ifshe would go to the dance. We had just had one ofthe worst storms ever so they thought they would be cool,and walked around in the snow. When they were done, they went back and wrote \"James'\" name in one ofthefootprints. They then went up to the door and left a note and told \"Jane\" to go out and look through the You'reprobablywonderingwhere footwear, and if you read the footprints for his name, written in red dye. you can get yo ur original \"James\" story yo u will find out.
