Sharing his unique brand of wisdom and wit the Chicken made a wel- comed visit to the Tech campus. His slap-stick style of comedy brought a smile to many peoples faces during his stay. Photo by Kevin Autrey No longer plain and simple, but . . . Vibrant West Texas sunset. And simple elegance everywhere, from fra- ternity champagne parties to the tulips around Memorial Circle. A persona of people and tradition, a persona of the old and the new. For Tech students, it ' s important to under- stand the accomplishments of the past to appre- ciate the university of today.

Student Life It begins when we put that last bit of luggage in the back of Dad ' s 74 Toyota and take off for the glamour and excitement of college living, and ends four or five years later when we take that long walk across stage to receive our degree.

And for a majority of college students it ' s a time that they will remember with mixed emotions. — Sid Lowe Si i 1 2 — Student Life Divider
