According to her school newspaper and yearbook, Hillary Rodham debated Democrats, almost made it onto a quiz show, performed in a Hamlet parody called “Halibut,” took a stand against vandalism, and interviewed herself about her high school accomplishments.
Southwords, 10/2/1964
The high school Hillary Rodham graduated from did not exist until her senior year. Having previously attended Maine East High School, Rodham spent her final year before college at the newly founded Maine South in Park Ridge, Illinois, the Chicago suburb where she lived for almost her whole childhood.
If the reporting of the school newspaper, Southwords, is any indication, the school year of 1964-65 was a busy one for Rodham.
She was a member of the Student Council Constitutional Committee.
"The group, composed of 10 members, studied both Maine East's and Maine West's constitutions to write Maine South's. Former Maine East graduates attended meetings to offer suggestions for particular clauses.
"The constitution has yet to be approved by the Administration and student body. Student Council hopes the constitution will be in effect by second semester."
