! Exciting New Contest !
Editors Note; Since it appears that the buildings at
Highacres have been destined to dternally bear their
respective redundant and ridiculous names, The Bcauid
of Directors of The Highacres Collegian thought it
would be fitting to give at least one permanent ed
ifice on this campus a name with a bit of class and
charm.
The Board of Directors of THE HIGHACRES COLLEGIAN
is pleased to announce its
