                                                    Decision making for juniors turned out to be

                                              tougher than the problems themselves. Deciding
                                         what would be better for their future and thinking

                                           what the consequences might be,                                          w  e  r  e
                                       some thoughts in the minds of
                                                  most of the students.

                                       When thinking of decision
                                             ma!dng, most were re-

                                            ments: steps taken, and
                                       effects of  those decisions.

                                                 Some took this deci-
                                         sion making to more of a

                                            spiritual level. "I clear
                                          my thoughts and have an
                                             open mind when making a

                                                                      fast decision,"  Adam  Meraclitb said.
                                                         Others used this level when deciding what

                                         would benefit them later. "I visualize what may or
                                       may not happen. If I  still can't make a  decision, I  do
                                                     whichever is less risky,"  Stacy  Latusiek said.

                                                      While some looked for the answers in them·
                                        selves, others looked to the advice of others. "When

                                         I  have a  really tough problem, the first thing I  do is
                                            look to  people I  respect and decide what to do by
                                        my own values," said Erin  Ring. To others it was as

                                              easy as a  discussion with one.  "I talk to my boy·
                                         friend, and I  go by what we decide together," Robin

                                                                                                              Platte  said.
                                                     Decision making for juniors was a  tough job,
                                        but everyone had to do it in some form.o
