A combination of something old and something new: Parents ' and Friends ' Weekends provided Manchester students with the opportunity to share with family and friends the routine of college life as well as special activities planned just for them. For the many new students, this served as an initial blending of their new role as college student and previously- held roles known to parents and home- town friends. Parents ' Weekend ushered in the month of October. Friday evening welcomed par- ents with a kick-off dinner in the Union Cafeteria. Later that evening, parents and students applauded Dustin Hoffman in Tootsie, and feasted on nachos in the Cellar. Saturday featured the traditional President ' s Reception and Coffee with the Professors in the Cellar. Parents Weekend came to a close Sunday with a plant show sponsored by the Career Office. Friends ' Weekend, November 4-6, sug- gested that Friends Add Magic to Your Life. After registration and dinner, friends and students played free video games and billiards at the Open Union and danced to music by WMEE ' s d.j. Tony Richards. Saturday highlighted the week- end as Dick Stoner fascinated all with magic in the afternoon. The Cellar served hot pretzels, and invited friends to join in a late-night scavenger hunt. Sunday Cele- bration and the Manchester Symphony Orchestra Concert concluded a magical weekend. On Friends ' Weekend, Jill Yost and Tonnya Keller discover that making hot pretzels is as much fun as eating them. Susan Green doesn ' t attempt to impress her parents with an uncommonly clean room. 3 Touring the Physical Education and Recreation Center, Cindy Sturdevant and her parents pause on the stairs to talk.

Class reunions were held for the alumni. A pre- game parachute exhibition got the football game under way, and a post-game picnic with square dance music was held on the lawn behind the Union.
