Similar to "Show SIGforum what you look like", how about show SIGforum your high school/college yearbook photo?
Hoping this might lighten the mood of the membership, getting away from the news cycle of things.

My yearbook is still at Dad's house.

Okay then. Hey it was 1987, that's my excuse.
And spring break in Bermuda...

Great timing, 6guns! I found copies of my high school graduation photo just last week.
I'm still debating whether to post it, but I'll offer a clue... I didn't have quite as much hair as frayedends.
God bless America.

Locked in the school office and played "DJ" for 76hrs and 18 minutes.
I guess there is a limit to continual replaying "Day-O..." over the intercom.

No high school or college yearbook, but this was taken at my sister's wedding about a year or two after I graduated high school (1978 or 79)

I only bought two yearbooks when I was in high school, but tossed them out in my late 20s. Oh well.

This request falls under my favorite Jerry Clower quote:

By the time my junior year came around I had changed schools and had little to no affinity for most of my classmates. Worlds apart in interests, philosophy, personal finances. I’m listed as a graduate for my second senior year despite being one credit (short credits for two classes not passed) to officially graduate, made that up by the next year. So I had zero photos taken in those three years.

Straight out of the 1989 yearbook. It was my freshman year.

Thought I'd give this a bump in case anyone would like to add a "youthful" photo.
