Have you ever stopped and thought — really thought — about senior superlatives in yearbooks? Because when you do, they’re bananas! Diana Park agrees. In fact, she’s hated them since high school: “I was on the yearbook committee when I was in high school. I loved my journalism classes and I think having students write about their favorite memories and their goals for the future alongside pictures of their adolescent years is a true art form that’s important even in this age of digital everything. But there was one thing I didn’t love: senior superlatives.” And her argument against the practice is really, really convincing, too. (And not just because I still think my high school graduating class should have awarded me “best truck,” either.) Kelly Faircloth, Executive Editor |
