VOL. XVI, NO. 1

Is going steady good?

Donna Carlino '77 - Yeah, if you really like the person, why not make it official?

Brad Serani '75 - The idea is good, but I myself don't like it. I don't want to feel tied down.

Eileen Van Royen '75 - Yes and no. Yes, if it adds to your school spirit. No, if it detracts you from your studies.

Brian Berger '76 - Sure! Why not?

Mrs. Amanda DeFranco - Yes, I think so, my children have all gone steady. I think they feel secure.

Keith Reiken '75 - Yes, because you get to know each other better.

Soon Hee Han '76 - Yes, because it makes you feel good.

Jayne Schulenburg '75 - I guess it depends on the people.

Janice Newman '75 - Yes, it gives you a sense of responsibility.

Luana Riccette '77 - No, because I have heard a lot of girls crying in the halls after they just broke up, and I tell you it is not worth it. How can two people go steady at this age and have it grow into a meaningful relationship? It's a bunch of baloney.

Terry Marchewka '75 - Yes, because it makes you feel secure and allows you to have a relationship.

Laura D'Argo '77 - It depends on who you are going steady with.

Donna Cline '77 - It depends more or less on how you feel about being tied down or not being able to go out with whomever you want and taking the responsibility of being someone's girl.

Sandy Carrie '76 - Yeah, because it's a nice feeling that you're wanted, a lot of good times, and meeting new people like his parents, friends, and family. It just altogether makes you feel wanted.

Miss Claire Watson - I think it depends mainly on a person's age, because I feel that younger people need to meet a lot of people of the opposite sex and not just be so involved in one single person.

Cindy Geimer '76 - I think it's dumb if you're really young; I think you should go out with a lot of different guys before you tie yourself down. But, if you find the right person, stick with him.

Marian Varga '77 - It depends if you really like the guy. If he wants to own you, it is bad and usually ends in a fight. But it's good because you have a lot of nice times, and you know he likes you a lot.

Mike Mayer '76 - Yeah, I think so, if it's your bag!

Scott Grooms '75 - No I think it's stupid.

Bill Frazier '75 - No, I never liked it. You can't go out with any other chicks.

Rudy Martinez '75 - Yes, if you really love each other, you'll want to be together.

Jill Carynski '76 - It's not worth it.

Patty George '75 - No, because you'll be tied down to someone all your life, so why be tied down now.

Keith Fredrickson '75 - No, you don't want to be tied down to one person; you won't be able to fool around.

Lisa Thorpe '75 - No! Just no.

Kathy Pelinski '76 - Yes, if you want to find out what kind of person he is.

Gloria Abbinanti '75 - Yes, to a certain extent.

Mary Bush '75 - Never gone, but still available.

Kathy O'Shea '75 - In a way, it depends upon the two people; so give me a call!

Sue Rose '75 - Yes, as long as the relationship doesn't tie you down from other friends.

Sue Hanson '77 - It's O.K., if you really want to. But it's nice to date different people sometimes.

Darlene Gorgolione '78 - It's all right if you're sure you know the person well and really like him or her, but it shouldn't mean your freedom stops.

Tom McAvoy '75 - Yes, you can tell how the people involved feel about each other.

Cliff Touhy '75 - No! It's bad for your morale as a playboy.
