With 89-2 people attend- ing, it became one of the biggest social events of the year. cThe lap sit and spoon ,race were mainly organized for more group involvement and it suc- ceeded, according to cor- responding secretary Suzanne Foushee. The spoon race was a new game in which the different classes competed against each other to see who was fastest at getting a spoon tied onto a string up and down through every other person's shirt.

He said, H... there were more students and more elaborate games than beforef, Getting to know the up- perclassmen was one of the main reasons for the freshmen to participate in How Night. Freshman Katie Walsh summed it up by saying, 'glt was a great chance for everybody to get to know each other.
