Wandering Warrior
Maura Neff '72 - Detentions are necessary when it comes to disciplining class disruptions, but I don't think disciplinary actions should be taken for tardies.
Kevin Mahoney '74 - No, detentions don't have any value. Students don't go to them anyway.
Bernadette Binder '74 - I think detentions are a riot! A better way to improve them is to have all school detentions.
Tim Shanahan '75 - I don't think detentions are valuable because they don't help the student. There should be an alter-native for them.
John Ritzenthaler '72 - Detentions have no value at all because action should be taken on part of the students to discipline themselves.
Kevin Moore '73 - There shouldn't be detentions, because students already get disciplined by the lowering of their grades.
Chris Donohue '72 - Detentions don't have any value. If students weren't always sent to the deans, the deans would have more constructive time to spend on bettering the school.
Patsy Smith '73 - Detentions aren't worthwhile because students should know what is expected of them when they reach high school.
Barb Kulig '74 - No, because for one thing I got one for cutting (a study) and getting a detention doesn't mean that I won't do it again.
Mrs. Diana Johnson - Since I am not a student, I can't say whether they are valuable or not. An alternative would be a student body that is self-motivated; therefore, detentions wouldn't be necessary.
Dave Geen '75 - Detentions aren't valuable, because students don't learn from them. If students cut, their grade should be lowered.
