  • Project Graduation
    A How-To Manual Department of Mental Health, Mental Retardation and Substance Abuse Services Office of Substance Abuse Information & Resource Center Prevention Division 159 State House Station Augusta ME 04330 (207) 287-8907 (1-800-499-0027) INTRODUCTION hen Spring rolls around, only one thing is on the minds of high school seniors across the country: GRADUATION! As a rite of wpassage, graduation night is unequaled in the eyes of youth. It is a night to be proud, to celebrate past achievements, and to look forward to the future. But some teens mistakenly think that the best way to celebrate on graduation night is to drink alcohol. In the past, graduation parties involving alcohol have left some graduating seniors with hangovers, embarrassing memories, and in trouble with their parents, friends, and/or the police. Some others were not so lucky. There were 15 teenagers killed in alcohol related crashes in Maine’s 1997 graduation season. Graduation parties should be fun, not fatal. The idea of all night, chemical free graduation partes is not new. Oregon high schools have sponsored such parties for graduating seniors for 50 years. The name “Project Graduation” was coined twenty years ago by planners in Maine, where a total of eighteen people had died during two graduation seasons due to alcohol-related crashes. Maine’s first Project Graduation was such a success that high schools throughout the State adopted similar programs, and “Project Graduation” became a generic name for the chemical-free graduation parties that have started a new tradition - celebrating safely. All school-related functions are supposed to be chemical-free, but what makes Project Graduation different is the attitude of the students.

The early 1990s marked a dramatic change in the gender balance. Not only did many female singer-songwriters emerge, but their artistic achievements generally ranked higher than those of the men. The emergence of the female auteur was partly a consequence of the riot-grrrls movement and partly a sign of a changing social and psychological landscape. The ladies had their own styles (plural). First of all, at the turn of the decade, an eccentric figure of lo-fi psychedelic storytellers emerged out of New York's underground lofts. Multi-instrumentalist Azalia Snail (12) devoted her career to enigmatic and arcane reconstructions of the hippie era. Snailbait (? 1988/?1989 - ? 1989) featured a parade of folk-psychedelic vocal impersonations as well as erratic guitar playing with no rhythm section, and peaked with a 23- minute collage of singing, distorted tapes, found noises and assorted turbulence, So Much More To Go. Burnt Sienna (? ? - ? 1992) indulged in psychedelic effects, amid distorted vocals and dissonant music, leading to the chaotic Fumarole Rising (? 1993 - ? 1993), the culmination of her program of disintegration of the pop song.
