Taking Time for Friends Pulses raced, hearts beat wildly, the seconds seemed like hours. The bell finaly rang that gave the signal for the beginning of two days of fun with friends. For an entire week, students planned, prepared, and looked forward to the weekend. On Fri- day the joy of a few days off was felt, and Sunday, the anxiety of going back hit many. Football or basketball games and the after game dances were places students could always be found. Going to the mall, movies. Gold Rush, or biking were things you could do all year. In the warm- er weather the water slides and the river were popular, and in the colder weather snow skiing was the popular sport. Weekends were always fun, but everyone dreaded the thought of another week of school. However, the everyday grind of the week helped us enjoy the weekend more. Design by Kari Elthg.

Threads with Pizzazz Where did you buy that blouse? ”1 found it at the local thrift store. It's a great place to find the look of today's fashion. As unlikely as that may sound with the 1985 fashion, it was not unusual to find clothing carried over from past generations. Clothes from preppy to punk, and classy to casual, hit the fash- ion scene on campus. It was as common to see tennis shoes in the halls as it was galoshes. The season was full of color, huge sweaters, and laces. New labels such as Forenza, Guess, and Esprit influenced students as we! as the high prices. Styles were also inspired by local stores such as Judy's, Contempo, and other Fies- ta Mall shops. The hottest items around were bracelets made of silver, crystal and rubber accessories, big belts, and large dangling earrings. Laces and ribbons also added the extra touch to the crtc blunt haircut. Buckled boots, lace-up sandals, and the K-Swiss sport shoe all dominated the foot craze. Everywhere you walked on campus, you saw someone with his or her own unique style. Fashion was the best way for someone to express their identity. Design by Debi Ferguson. Photos by Karen Herbaugh and Andy Phelps.
