About a month ago, I read an article about McQuaid Jesuit High School’s decision to allow same-sex couples at its dances. As I thought about this issue, I began to wonder why we have dances in the first place and what their purpose is. I think that any school policy about dances is based on the answer to this question. I would like to talk about why, in my opinion, SLUH has dances and why we go to them.

I initially became involved with the Prep News because I enjoyed writing, but most of what I learned over the past three years has had nothing to do with writing. Inside the poster-plastered walls of the Prep News office, I’ve learned about physics, friendship, books, how to motivate people, the hidden power of an anecdote or story to make life interesting, and so much more.
