The ramp between Business Tech and what was originally called the Apprenticeship Building did not exist when the school first opened in the autumn of 1968; this caused many people to be late for class if they had typing (done on IBM Selectric typewriters) back-to-back with something like history or English. In order to get from one class to another, you had to go from B-Tech around Industrial Tech to get to Apprenticeship, which was really annoying to the staff. I got up a petition and got a lot of people to sign it, which caused the new ramp to be built.
