This poll is two, two, two polls in one! Please respond to both parts. Respond to #2a by selecting your choice in the pull-down menu and then click on the Submit Vote button. You'll be shown the results of poll #2a. Then, come back to this page and vote in poll #2b. You must click "submit vote" for each of the two polls in order for both votes to be registered.

The poll is about perspective. From the perspective of a 17-ish year-old in 1980, what did you think at the time was the most important part of your  high school experience? Then, from the perspective of a nearly 40-ish adult-type person, what do you think should have been your priority as a 17-ish year-old? Are they the same or are they different?
