[edit] Prank of 2006. Trivia?

The entry about the senior prank of 2006 doesn't sound like trivia. It sounds more like news and sounds more important than something trivial. I suggest (re)moving the paragraph. Immortal Time Keeper 07:56, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

It was previously in a section called "Media Coverage", but it was the only information in that particular section. What would you recommend? Ryoji.kun 21:22, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Mascot of Independence High School

As a member of The American 2007, or the Yearbook staff for Independence High School, we list the 76er (or the Sixer) as the school mascot, and in my original cleanup of this article I listed the 76er as such -- not Sammy the Sixer. Other schools do not list their mascot as a named mascot; why Independence? I recommend we relist the 76er as the mascot for the school. Saying "our mascot is the Sammy the Sixer" can sound silly.

...except the school's own site lists the mascot as Sammy Eagle. I'd go check with the school to see which one is correct, considering you're a student at the school. And whether it sounds silly or not is aside from the issue at hand. Destin Isatha 21:53, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
