Thomas Hipp, president of Heathwood Hall Episcopal School, Margaret Taylor Cain, cub reporter for The Columbia Star and student at Heathwood Hall and Arthur Corontzes, president of Hammond School.

I had the pleasure of interviewing the rising student body presidents Thomas Hipp from Heathwood Hall Episcopal School and Arthur Corontzes from Hammond School. I wanted to ask a few questions about the upcoming school year.

MT: What are y'all looking foward to as presidents in the 2007- 2008 school year?

Arthur : Well, organizing the pep rallies will defidently be a highlight. Getting our school riled up to beat Thomas will be fun, but heading the Student Council will be a definite challange.

Thomas : I'm looking forward to many things this upcoming year. Running Morning Meeting is an event that will be a lot of fun. Working with the faculty and fellow peers is exciting. Just all the challenges that being President brings is exciting in itself.

MT: Is there a chance of Hammond and Heathwood working together next year?

Thomas : Of course, Arthur and I have already thrown out some ideas. Possibly have a swap and visit each other's school and see how they run. If there is anything we like at Hammond, we may try to instill it in our student council.

Arthur : Despite our heated athletic rivalry, I believe Hammond and Heathwood are extremely similar, and our schools could benefit from a healthy relationship.

MT: Who is going to win the football game?

Thomas : Heathwood will win by two touchdowns.

Arthur : Maybe if our entire team breaks their legs! Hammond will win by two touchdowns.

MT: Thank you boys, and goodluck.
