Dis-Orientation The freshmen. We can usually pick them out of the crowd in an instant, traveling in packs to D- Hall or asking for direcions to Anthoney-Seeger. We all have our favorite freshman joke to tell or embarassing act that most of us have committed our- selves at one time. These freshman (all 2034 of them) do have something to boast about. Their SAT score average (1096) is the highest of any incoming freshman class. They ' re off to a good start on their academic career, these un- suspecting recipients of the JMU miracle cure. What is this cure? It is a process which requires three to five years to take com- plete effect and will change your life forever. by Ann Marie Maloney Before Appearance: facial expression is mixture of terror and confu- sion because he doesn ' t know what he ' s doing Sleep: thinks he requirees 7-8 hours — normally confines it to one or two locations — considers naps something forced to do as a child Studying: believes that the li- brary is the best place to go Parking: doesn ' t worry about it because he doesn ' t have a car Class: doesn ' t know when to skip so he does it all the time or goes every day — show up early, even to 8 o ' clocks Partying : thinks that Village parties are the greatest inven- tion since the wheel — gets sick often — in search of the eternal buzz After Appearan ce: same expression because he hasn ' t found a job yet. Sleep: rarly occurs at night — naps are an indispensable part of life — can be taken any time, anywhere — quad and classes are most conducive Studying: done anywhere BUT the library — normally conducted on the way to class Parking: occupies more atten- tion and concentration than his classes Class: has firmly established levels of priorities concerning attendance — shows up late if he shows up at all Partying: whatever takes the least amount of effort — doesn ' t seek out parties with populations exceeding 10 peo- ple per square foot — has achieved the eternal buzz With a familiar Mend in hand, a new student anxiously anticipates the college experience. 1 . i Zanetti 28 FRESHMEM
