Greek Week ' s success helped uni- fy our fraternities and sororities. We worked on house decs, floats, jalo- pies, skits and clowns for Homecom- ing. Although it rained on our parade, the inclement weather frustrated RHA because of low attendance at the Carnival. It was also a year of celebrities at Northwest — Louise Mandrell, Berlin, Dr. Ruth and The Rainmakers visit- ed campus; whereas Mary Lou Ret- ton canceled her scheduled appearance. We did express our concern to the administration regarding the closing of the bridge and when the rumors regarding Rober- ta Hall were being spread. We also had something to be proud of — the electronic cam- pus became reality. Throughout the year we were reminded of the computer ' s place on campus, in every dorm room and faculty office on campus — imagine that.
