Our Time 1998

T U e / f e w O ^ b e * 2 000: some consider it the start of a new millenium; others consider it the end of the current one. In either case, the sophomores who bear it as their namesake signify the continual change that is an integral part of IMSA. Selected carefully by admissions staff, the class of 2000 has proven to be a diverse and committed class. After the intital adjustment period, most sophomores got into the rhythm of IMSA life, and began to contribute their unique characteristics to the school. They became accus– tomed to the fine cuisine of Arbor and claimed the sofas in the old cafeteria to be their territory. Jeary Beals enjoyed spending his time with fellow sopho– mores in the old cafe, as he said, "It's a great place to hang out!" However, the sophomores did not isolate themselves from the other classes; they understood the wi sdom that lay in the upperclass– men and looked to them for advice, support, and sometimes just a sympa– thetic ear. As the sophomores con– tinue to find their niche at IMSA, they will become a crucial part of history. By the time they graduate in the new millenium, they will have become a group of people embodying the spirit of classes that had gone before them, and will leave their marks upon the sophomores of their time. Until then, as Noah Lauricella aptly commented, " IMSA is my home away from home."
