A Change of Pace
Change seems to be frequent, and the pace at which
it is moving appears to be quickening. Just when one
thinks things are stationary, situations arise to contradict
this. Peopie wiii tell of how altered things become. Ex­
amples of this are within our school.
One change began last year, and continues this year.
It was, of course, the expansion. New wings were added
to each floor to create more classrooms. Elevators were
installed for use by the faculty, injured, or ill. A bigger
cafeteria was built, and along with that came a new
company to prepare the food. A larger, up-to-date li­
brary was built. Other expansion additions were a new
weight room, and a new faculty lounge. The list goes on
and on, and we continue to expand this year.
One of the biggest changes this year was the addition
of new faculty members. It was a fairly large addition.
There is diversity already in the faculty, and with more
people, things can only become more diverse. New per­
spectives and attitudes are being taught, and from this,
minds are being changed.
Naturally, numerous changes are going on within the
school, as is the natural state of affairs, many of which
are subtle and too complicated to explain. However,
one thing should be realized. Despite the many changes
that occur in our society, school, whatever, one thing will
never change — human nature. People do not change.
Ideas may change, but behavior will not. Thus, we have
to work with human nature to bring positive innovations
into existence.
