We first discussed the 'pros
andA cons' of Initiation Day.
Judging "by the comments of
some, the traditional
welcoming of Yeah One
students in some cases is a lit-
tle too wild! Should Initiation
Day be abolished as it has in
many area Secondary Schools`'
These meetings provide both
students and staff an oppor-
tunity to share ideas, and
problems of their side of life at
G.D.C.I. Improvements arise
from such communication.
Formal decorations are run-
ning at full steam which is good
- because the big event is this
Friday evening, April 27!
Today (Thursday) and
tomorrow, those students who
have attended 80% of the
decorating meetings are exempt
froilrt -classes, so that they may
finish trimming the gym-
nasiums into an Enchanted
Forest:.
The 'Norseman' will come
out this week, and the 'Roving
Reporters' -are presently
digging up little tidbits of infor-
mation relevant to the students
of G.D.C.I. for, the Spring Issue
