The Woodhut, a five- bedroom house at 2218 Leon, had been a home for UT fraternity men for almost 10 years. The tradition began when Mr. and Mrs. Alan King bought the house for several of their sons atten- ding the University. Over the years Woodhut became home for more than just the King fami- ly. Potential residents were referred to the Kings by current residents, and word about Woodhut spread among friends. The Kings offered students a more personalized relationship with the management and a better chance to get to know other residents. It became a tradition for members of the Kappa Alpha and Fiji fraternities to live there. Five people resided at Woodhut in the 1984-85 year: Steve Steen, Clay Miller, Douglas Fyfe, David King and Thomas Hunt. Most guys at Woodhut live there for a year or longer. It has been an oppor- tunity for me to make some very close friends, said Clay Miller, kitchen manager of the Woodhut. When residents were not at class or studying, they held Bible studies or played in- tramural softball. Woodhut residents also threw several theme parties. The biggest were the end-of-the-year beach bash and a kamikaze party where guests appeared sporting various styles of bathrobes. Always the guest of honor at any Woodhut fiesta was the Woodhut com- puter; a personal model which presides over chug-a-lug contests from the recreation room, daring anyone to beat its time. Woodhut remained a pleasant alter- native to dorm or apartment living. Residents expressed high hopes that the Woodhut tradition would continue and possibly get more involved on campus. Playing chug-a-lug at the Woodhut is an ex- ercise in high-tech madness for Thomas Hunt as he explains moves to Steve Steen. Photo by Jim Sigmon Woodhut 329

CANTERBURY STUDENTS ASSOCIATION Faith instills desire to serve by DIANA WOLFE { 4 T ) leased are those who seek to [J understand their own ex- perience honestly enough to admit they are not self-sufficient nor ever will be, said the reverend Seth Deleery of All Saints Episcopal Church. In a sentence, this was what the Canterbury Associa- tion of Episcopal Students meant to its members. Deleery said the Canterbury was a place for anyone to come and study, talk, watch TV, make new friends, ask advice, or express an opi- nion. Members ranged from freshmen to doctoral candidates and professors. The Canterbury existed as a separate entity from All Saints Episcopal Church where it was located, but worked closely with Deleery. Every Wednesday evening Canterbury members cooked dinner and held a church service which the students helped to plan.

The senior wardens of the Canterbury felt one of their most meaningful ac- tivities was their monthly visits to the Travis State School for the Mentally Retarded. They realize that people do not have to come and visit them. They come running out of their dormitories to greet us, said Becca Carskadden, a senior warden of the Canterbury. Each time the Canterbury visited they threw a party for a dorm, sang songs, played music and served refreshments. Pete Moynihan, a senior warden, felt the students grew from this experience by learning to appreciate their own lives. You learn that they are people too and can sometimes get their feelings hurt, he said.

BUSINESS HONORS ASSOCIATION Altered structure promotes greater group effort by JULIA BLAILOCK and TRACI GRAVES {{YTTearea well-rounded group of V V people who are trying to be- come more involved in the University, said Sam Bassett, the Honors Business Association president. In order to change, the 90-member Association revamped its leadership structure. The traditional role of president was split and the new position of chairman was created. Bassett said, the chairman, Sue Desai, dealt more directly with the faculty and the academic portion of the Associa- tion ' s program while he was in charge of all social affairs. Bassett worked together with the Presidential Assembly to establish the $2500 Presidential Assembly Endowed Scholarship to be given to a sophomore Paul Martin discusses an issue with Joe Deken at a Think and Drink as Gary Kittrell and Sam Bassett listen.

The Assembly, made up of numerous business organization presidents, will elect a student committee in fall 1985 who will select the recipient each year. They planned to raise $30,000 to start the scholarship. The Honors Program Committee also scouted out information concerning visits of career advisors prior to their ar- rival. This group contacted the advisor and set up a specific time during his stay to talk with the honors students about resumes and interviewing procedures. The monthly Think and Drink was the most popular activity sponsored by the Association. Each month members and guests met with faculty members to socialize and become better acquainted. This gives students and professors a chance to relax and meet on an informal basis, Shubhada Desai said. .
