Commentary<br />
Atmosphere here can stifle self-expression<br />
<strong>High</strong> school years<br />
are ending, and <strong>of</strong><br />
course I have<br />
mixed emotions.<br />
Not long ago Hoban<br />
was just a big white word to<br />
me. In retrospect, as I think<br />
<strong>of</strong> the differences between<br />
this school and the public schools I attended, the<br />
first word that comes to mind is money.<br />
From T-shirts to jeans days and special<br />
events, they all cost money. I find I am paying<br />
for simple liberties I would enjoy in the outside<br />
world, the one outside Hoban. I accepted the<br />
uniforms adopted sophomore year with a sigh <strong>of</strong><br />
relief. It had become a hassle dodging the<br />
administration whenever my shirt needed to be<br />
tucked in or I was wearing too many<br />
wristbands. Even with their conveniences, the<br />
school shirts stifle self-expression in an already<br />
personality-stunting atmosphere.<br />
From checking to see if T-shirts are properly<br />
tucked in and faces are shaved to having to<br />
approve student-proposed activities, the<br />
administration is not s<strong>of</strong>t. It is a surprise the<br />
school has such traditions as Mum Day and<br />
by Dwayne<br />
Yates<br />
Don’t join activites just to impress colleges<br />
When Eisenhower<br />
left <strong>of</strong>fice, he left<br />
the country a<br />
stern warning on the<br />
growing military-industrial<br />
complex. I leave Hoban<br />
with a similar warning on a<br />
very different complex—the<br />
high school-college complex.<br />
Nearly every day I hear, “It looks good on a<br />
college application,” and I want to slam my head<br />
in a locker. We know little about what colleges<br />
look for in prospective students. You know what?<br />
We shouldn’t. None <strong>of</strong> us will ever know why we<br />
were turned down from a college or why we got<br />
in, and that is fine by me. I can tell you I didn’t<br />
get into every college I applied to, but I did get into<br />
the one I wanted. That was enough for me.<br />
Most things we are told look good on college<br />
applications don’t matter at all. Signing up for<br />
dozens <strong>of</strong> clubs and working yourself until you<br />
pass out at your desk will not get you into a top<br />
college. In my experience, most <strong>of</strong> what colleges<br />
are interested in are things you can’t change.<br />
If you did poorly on your SAT, either you are a<br />
Rent-a-Junior. Student<br />
council and individual<br />
students have limited<br />
freedom to voice their<br />
ideas. A group <strong>of</strong> girls who<br />
wanted to start their own<br />
gospel choir had their<br />
dream crushed because<br />
they could not find a faculty supporter.<br />
I have personal examples <strong>of</strong> trying to bring<br />
something different to the table and being shot<br />
down. A few days before Gwen Stefani’s album<br />
The Sweet Escape was released, I got a copy <strong>of</strong> the<br />
album, posters and memorabilia in hopes <strong>of</strong><br />
holding a listening party in Showers Activity<br />
Center. I even had a faculty member to supervise.<br />
<strong>My</strong> dreams were shot down when I was told that<br />
Gwen Stefani wasn’t the kind <strong>of</strong> artist Hoban<br />
students should be exposed to at school.<br />
I don’t come to school to be babied, I come to<br />
learn. I would encourage the administration to be<br />
more open-minded when it comes to life in<br />
general. Students would have more fun, and<br />
student council members will be more enthusiastic<br />
instead <strong>of</strong> afraid if their ideas fit into an imaginary<br />
box the size <strong>of</strong> their administration’s head.<br />
by Andrew<br />
Bluebond<br />
bad test taker or you<br />
probably aren’t qualified to<br />
get into one <strong>of</strong> the most<br />
exclusive schools. Natural<br />
intelligence is more valuable<br />
than learned intelligence,<br />
because many schools are<br />
looking for students with the<br />
greatest potential, even those who have come<br />
nowhere near reaching theirs.<br />
During the half dozen interviews I had while<br />
applying, no one asked how busy I was or what<br />
activities I had. They asked about the three things<br />
I said I was most passionate about: mock trial,<br />
newspaper and volunteering at the juvenile court.<br />
If you do anything just to get into a top<br />
college, you should quit; you probably won’t get in<br />
anyway. If you are involved at school so you can<br />
become a more learned person with a variety <strong>of</strong><br />
experiences, you will benefit from them whether<br />
you get into the college <strong>of</strong> your choice or not.<br />
If you feel like you used high school to be<br />
become a better person and not just a better<br />
résumé, you don’t need to worry if you didn’t get<br />
into Cornell. I didn’t either.<br />

Be the person you<br />
would like to be<br />
Here it is, Hoban seniors. Today’s<br />
our last day as high school<br />
students and my last day as a<br />
columnist. In less than three months,<br />
most <strong>of</strong> us will be starting college, moving<br />
out and taking our first steps toward<br />
adulthood. It will be a chance for all <strong>of</strong> us<br />
to have a fresh start.<br />
I have made more mistakes and bad<br />
decisions in high school than I care to<br />
remember. There have been innumerable<br />
instances when I would have sold my soul<br />
for a rewind button on my life. Now, at<br />
the end <strong>of</strong> our high school careers, we are<br />
given something even better.<br />
The accumulation <strong>of</strong> detentions over<br />
the years, the countless tardies and the<br />
stacks <strong>of</strong> missing homework assignments<br />
no longer matter. To put it bluntly, we’re<br />
free!<br />
Right now, all <strong>of</strong> us are worried about<br />
how we will be remembered by Hoban and<br />
our senior class. However, we have to<br />
look to the future and concentrate on how<br />
we will be perceived by our new<br />
classmates next fall.<br />
Each <strong>of</strong> us will remember and stay in<br />
touch with only a choice few. Other than<br />
that, most <strong>of</strong> our high school classmates<br />
will be lost in the pages <strong>of</strong> our yearbooks.<br />
I talk too much and can be insensitive.<br />
That is not how I want to be remembered<br />
at Hoban, and it certainly is not what I<br />
want students at Dayton to think <strong>of</strong> me.<br />
There are personality flaws and<br />
mannerisms that I want to correct before I<br />
leave the security <strong>of</strong> Hoban and my home.<br />
Change is inevitable, but a change for<br />
the better is a decision. <strong>My</strong> final advice to<br />
all <strong>of</strong> you is to not squander this<br />
opportunity to be the kind <strong>of</strong> person you<br />
want to be. In the words <strong>of</strong> Miss Frizzle<br />
from The Magic <strong>School</strong> Bus, “Take chances,<br />
make mistakes, and get messy!” !<br />

Senior Special<br />
It has been a privilege serving as sports editor and columnist<br />
In my time at Hoban I<br />
participated competitively<br />
only in golf, but as I look<br />
back, I sure wish I would have<br />
tried other things. Lacrosse, for<br />
example, would certainly have<br />
been a very enjoyable sport to<br />
play, had I given it a shot prior<br />
to just a few months ago.<br />
It is <strong>of</strong>ten said that the<br />
older you get, the wiser you<br />
become. I certainly agree.<br />
Over the past four years I<br />
think I have grown into a much<br />
stronger and more intelligent<br />
individual. Being cut from the<br />
golf team sophomore year was<br />

cut the following season.<br />
Spending my junior season <strong>of</strong><br />
golf on junior-varsity, I was able<br />

during that season, and after a<br />
successful sectional tournament,<br />
our team advanced to districts.<br />
No other word can describe<br />
my performance on district day<br />
better than “choke.” I had let<br />
my teammates, coach and most<br />
married with kids, living someplace<br />

has helped shape me<br />
into the person I am<br />
today.<br />
