10 f Spring Take A Raincheck The Spnhg Thaf Was Ahiosf Posfponea' When one Thinks of spring aT Emory, one usually con- jures up ThoughTs of blooming dogwoods on The quad and picnics in LullwaTer. However, when one Thinks of Spring 4083, The only visions ThaT come To mind are ones of umbrellas, duck shoes and raincoaTs. Due To The change To The semesTer sysTem, many of Emory's TradiTional spring evenTs were held earlier Than They had been in previous years. Since ATlanTa's weaTher is anyThing buT cooperaTive in April, we Tended To find ourselves Trampling Through mud and wading Through puddles. Spring Turned inTo a series of disappoinTmenTs as one evenT afler anoTher was cancelled or posTponed due To rain. Emory sTudenTs usually flock To l.ullwaTer every spring To sTudy, play frisbee or simply relax. LasT spring, howev- er, This riTual was hardly possible. LullwaTer Day, inTended To celebraTe The beauTy of The park and PresidenT's home Turned inTo 'TCox Hall Day as sTudenTs were packed inTo The cafeTeria for fried chicken and cakes. The HoT Air Balloon rides, usually The highlighT of The day, were cancelled, as were many of The oTher exciTing scheduled evenTs. Campus Life made The besT of The siTuaTion, buT iT's hard To celebraTe The arrival of spring from The inside of Cox Hall on a cold, rainy day. James T. Dooley, who ofTen appears To be above any Tricks To be played on him was also subjecT To MoTher NaTure's cruel dealings. Dooley's Week evenTs were con- Tinuously rained ouT, and The week Turned inTo noThing less Than a farce on previous Dooley's weeks. Perhaps The cruelisT Trick played on Emory by MoTher NaTure occurred while we were all working on our fanTas- Tic Tans in FT. Lauderdale for DayTona or Long lslandg Imagine everyone's surprise To hear ThaT while we were laying on various beaches across The counTry, ATlanTa was experiencing noThing less Than a blizzard! Nine inches of snow covered ATlanTa in whaT was definiTely The weir- desT snowsTorm in hisTory. So much for visions of Tara! The Sunny SouTh, Then, can be jusT as bizarre as The resT of The counTry, and we all learned The hard way ThaT There is no guaranTee ThaT spring will be as warm and sunny as we would like iT To be. If all else fails, Though, simply blame iT, like everyThing else ThaT wenT wrong lasT year, on The semesTer sysTem, Mlke Felnsfeln Top-Pighfx Donna Palley and Michelle Friedman bundle up during The cold Dooley's Week ConcerT. Middle-f?ighf: An unusually windy spring made sTudying outside a breeze. Boffom-l?ighf: No sTudenT was wiThouT Their TrusTy umbrella lasT spring. Vincent S VincenT Vir1C9r'lT
