Linda Wolfe Young

Went back to Los Angeles after graduation, Married in 1971 & settled in the Bay Area. Worked at UC Berkeley until 1994 & moved to Albany, Oregon, hated it, too much rain & grey skies, so back to the Bay. Worked a variety of Customer Service jobs, always in different areas, highly enlightening & educational! Traveled to different states, just cuz! Discovered I had a half brother & sister from my biological father & we get together almost every year in April & travel some place different, as we all have birthday's in April, my daughter included. For my 65th birthday & my daughter's 40th, we went to Cabo for 10+ days. We decided to skip 2019, as we have agreed to go to Greece & possibly Italy next year. I have settled in Reno, NV. Currently not married & plan to attend the 50th reunion , last one I went to was the 10 year & looking forward to seeing others.

In the era of mini skirts, dresses etc.., my homeroom teacher had yet to accept we were no longer in apparel of covered wagon days.I had a mini dress on & my boyfriends jacket, which made the dress look even shorter. He did not approve & sent me to the (at the time)infamous Mrs. Graves, the girls V.P. She wanted me to go to the Home Economics class & take out the hem. Becuz of the length (or lack of), I was to wear my dress with the raw edge hanging. I told her this was unacceptable & good money was spent on my clothes. Her attempt of a threat was she will call my mother, to which my response was handing her the phone. My mom let her know that she is aware of my attire before I leave for school , & that if she approved it, it was not up to her (Mrs. Graves) to pass judgement, or inflict her standards upon me & under no uncertain terms was I or anyone else, allowed to alter the dress in any way. I knew most of what was going to be said & definitely the way & demeanor it would be said, which was confirmed by the look on Mrs. Graves face at that time. Of course, I topped it off with a"gotcha" attitude & smirk on my face.
Then there was the time when the female classmates were fighting for the right to wear pants to school & I came to school wearing slacks, & coordinating sweater & accessories, once again sent to Mrs. Graves office. This time we met with the principle as my attire was actually acceptable to both, but the policy was not being adhered to. I presented my argument to which they could not disagree, but none the less at that time it was not allowed, & they had to follow the rules. The principle said I would have to go home & change clothes, & becuz of the distance told Mrs. Graves to take me & wait for me while I changed & bring me back to school. (she was not happy about that) I will assume that I & the rest of the female population must of made some sort of impact, as the very next year, in 1970, pant suits were allowed for females to wear!
