High school is ovah for us! Outside of all our glee, and maybe some sorrow, the following events occurred in the world this month:

• President Ronald Reagan famously demands Mikhail Gorbachev to tear down the Berlin Wall.
• With the first pick in the Major League Baseball amateur draft, the Seattle Mariners select high school standout Ken Griffey, Jr.
• Danny Harris beats Edwin Moses and ends Moses' nine year streak of 122 consecutive high hurdle race wins.
  
• The Lakers beat the Celtics in the NBA Finals to win their fourth championship of the 1980's.
  
• Margaret Thatcher wins a third consecutive term as Britain's Prime Minister.
  
• The media dubbed "Subway Vigilante", Bernhard Goetz, is acquitted for the shooting of four young black men who had tried to rob him.
