Panel impacts
P-T students
By Alisha Mann
Perkins-Tryon High School
students and staff were recently
given the opportunity to be an
audience to what is known as the
Victim's Impact Panel. Speak-
ers from other towns in Okla-
homa came to Perkins in hopes
of convincing the students that
drinking and riving only leads
to trouble, or even worse, death.
The speakers shared their tragic
loss of loved ones due to drunk
drivers.
Student responses about al-
cohol abuse included the follow-
ing:
"I think alcohol abuse is a
problem in our school, because
there are so many young people
who don't think about what they
are doing, and they often mix
alcohol with other drugs and
they could easily end up getting
hurt."
"I believe alcohol abuse is a
huge problem. Alcohol is way
overused, and I don't think high
school students should drink at
all. I think the police pulling
more students over are a big
help."
"I don't think that this year
is any different than last year, or
any other year for that matter,
but I do think our students this
year are more aware of drink-
ing and driving than ever be-
fore," quote a high school
teacher.
Fun doesn't have to be re-
lated to alcohol unless, of
course, your idea of fun is join-
ing your friends for a night in
jail, or better yet an eternity in
the grave.
Students all too often make
the poor decision and feel that
acceptance and popularity are
more important than safety and
well being:
