Alumni Weekend As the leaves around campus grew old and began to cover the ground with their famil- iar autumn colors, Milligan H College celebrated another homecoming. October 23rd through the 25th was the official Alumni Week- end this past year. Former students of all ages converged on our hilly campus to recall the good old days, as well as share in the excitement of today ' s cam- pus life. The weekend was highlighted by a va- riety of activities for both the athletic and nostalgic. These events included the an- By Laura Bennett nual Alumni 5K Run, an alumni-student flag football game, various class recep- tions, and an alumni banquet. Some students already knew several of the visiting alumni. Others enjoyed meeting the people who had lived in the same dormroom or shared the same post office box. Still others were primarily concerned with getting in a good game of football. Undoubtedly, though, by the time the weekend was over, students had a better understanding of just how strong the tie is that binds the hearts of Milligan students, both today and yes- terday. f Photo by Julie Pirkl Photo by RonnAnn Naedele The Alumni Banquet was enjoyed by all who attended.

Senior Girls Recognized 2y £L j acuufai6 D cty6ten The annual selection of Milligan ' s Founder ' s Daughter I is one of the most well-known of the school ' s traditions. Any senior girl is eligible to receive this award, and many of the organizations around campus present nominees every year for the position. This year ' s Founder ' s Daughter Convocation had Dr. James Street as the emcee filling in for Eugene Price, who was mourning over a major loss in the recent stock market crash. By Laura Bennett After all the nominees were presented, students cast their votes and anxiously awaited the outcome of the election. At a volleyball game that Friday evening, during Alumni Weekend, Stacy Drogowski was announced the winner, and Amy Sampson was chosen as runner-up. It was a tough choice, and even though only two girls were recognized, many thanks and congratulations go to the other nominees who were chosen as examples of the Milligan spirit!
