Me CI : oe ae : eee Freshmen find a time to relax and get acquainted at the picnic on the quad. 3 President and Mrs. Derryberry greet the new fresh- men at the faculty reception. 2,008 frosh adjust to college routine The first step for the freshmen was a matter of moving in and adjusting to dorm life. The freshmen were greeted at the dorm by their head residents. They were given a freshman package which contained an “Eagle” button, tickets and information concerning their first week at Tech. They were then asked to wear their name tag and beanie for the remain- der of the week. The freshmen’s first week was a week of orientation. Assemblies were held to acquaint the students with services of- fered by the university. A faculty recep- tion gave the freshmen a chance to meet their teachers. There were also a picnic on the quad, movies, and religious activi- ties at the local churches. Freshman week was concluded with an all-campus dance featuring the Funny Farm. One of the freshmen's first responsibilities was the bonfire for Homecoming. Page 21
