Its okay. The one year we make it to Globals, Yearbook forgets our picture. I KNOW they took it 'cause they had to retake it fifty freaking times!

Call your editor and harass them. Thats what Pat Michuads Da did when he found out we weren't in there.

I talked to the advisor (a very nice lady who's generally supportive of us), and she was very surprised that the page wasn't there, so it was probably just an accidental omission... Rather irked all the same.
Since it happened at Prep too, can we insist there's a conspiracy going on?

With Prep, I almost wish it were a malicious decision, rather than a bunch of slackers who can't even check a directory to make sure peoples' names are spelled right, or at least the same way twice on the same page... if it were malicious, then I could be mad at them for something other than being worthless and stupid. Did we mention they didn't bother doing any sort of index (in a 250+ page book...)? Not even the kind at the front with what page sections start on.

Anyway, the only conspiracy theory I have so far is that yearbook and newspaper are classes that unavoidably attract idiots with no standards or editing skills.

Around here, that's because it's an "English elective", and all the literate people who want to go to college have to take either AP or College Prep (sucky class) English (and are taking too many other college entry requirement classes to add the extra elective).
