Seniors go a little hog wild Magin CjROOVin ' . Seniors dance to the music of the popular band Everything. The band was a great addition to the Pig Roast and the dancing was a great way to work off all of the beer and food. Dead soldiers. Empty kegs line the back of the beer truck. As the day pro- gressed, Godwin field was covered with the remains of the Pig Roast ' s kegs. Winter ran unusually long this year, and so it seemed, did the spring semester. But the weather on the last day of April, Reading Day, was so beautiful that no one who hadn ' t seen it could have believed it snowed four days earlier. As it happened, in accordance with tradition, this was also the day of the senior Pig Roast. Sponsored by the junior class, the event consisted of the regionally popular band Everything, a truck full of beer, several tables of food and hundreds of students. Godwin field was divided into two sections for the event, one for those over 21 (they had the beer, the band and the hundreds), and the other for minors (they had the food). This arrangement worked well for Julie Laske who said, I enjoyed seeing my friends, but I would never eat pig. For the seniors it was a chance to have fun before studying for exams. It was an opportunity to attend one last stress free school function before graduation. With saying good- bye still a week away, no one had begun to feel sad, so it was a time to say Wow! We ' re done, let ' s have lunch next week... And it was f a time of reunions, roommates from freshman year together again for the first time in quite awhile. Senior Cynthia Payne said in reflec- tion, there was a sense of unity, everybody who I ' d spent the last four years with was there. I even got to meet a few new people. Pig roast was more than just a picnic: it was the University ' s way of saying farewell good luck to graduating seniors, and having one last blast with their JMU friends. Spirits were high and friends were plenty at Pig Roast ' 93. -Dan Kaufman 18 Pig Roast Magin
