What topics and our observations could give rise to?

One main topic this observation could inform is the changing opportunities of high school students from the 1960s until now. Based on the activities listed in the yearbook, you can determine if students in that area are exposed to the same, better, or worse opportunities. Another topic you could look at is what is socially acceptable to say over time. For example, the yearbook had an award for “best Physique” which wouldn’t fly today

What is the story?

Two people met at Crawford’s high school and both ended up at Butler University. They both joined greek life and were dating at the time. They ended up getting married and having two children. The mother got sick and passed away young and the husband remarried two years later.
