On Wednesdav morning a rock-climbing wall was set in the Guillot Center atrium while lM inflatable obstacle •urse stationed in the second-floor ballroom brought back irnival memories for students. During the early part of the week, students battled other Nature while decorating squares of campus side- alk with various chalk art. ' Tt was freezing that morning. It was really cold and indv and the chalk kept blowing all over the sidewalk, id Laura Beth Daws, who was in charge of Spring Fling [tivities for Alpha Delta Pi. However, the weather turned beautiful when organiza- )ns painted the Guillot windows with cheery designs, a ing tradition. They were all very colorful and creative. Everybody id a good time hanging out in front of the Sub, Daws id. Also on Wednesday were the highly-anticipated field mes, which were given theme names. The three-legged ce was dubbed Speedy Gonzalez while the tempting- unding Tequilla Twister was the moniker for the Dizzy zy. Running for the Border was the trolly-ropes race, a game in which two groups of six people stand on blocks of wood and race to the finish line by pulling themselves along with rope. On Thursday Henry Welch, a regular at the Birmingham Comedy Club, performed, and Spring Fling winners were announced. Nick Shelton (Sigma Chi) and Kelly Yates (Zeta Tau Alpha) were voted Spring Fling King and Queen, respectively.

However, the week of laughs, goofing off, spirited competition and bean-spitting contests unmistakably light- ened the mood on campus and helped ready students for the dreaded antithesis of Spring Fling week: finals week. - Kimb ly West 15

Every spring the University Program Council sponsors the week-long celebration, which is designed to lift the spirit of everyone on campus after a long winter of dreary weather and school- work. The Spring Fling committee, spearheacied by Donald Burton, Zana Hembree and Michael Waddell, chose the theme, planned the week ' s events and booked the special appearances months in advance. On Monday night, DeLuca, a student favorite, entertained with his beyond-belief talent to make seemingly sane people act like loonies by hypnotiz- ing them. He has a history of compelling audience members to cluck like chickens or act like 5-year- olds. This year DeLuca induced one of his victims — er, volunteers — to crave food. One of our girls got hypnotized and all she wanted was biscuits, said Jennifer Johnson, a junior and member of Alpha Gamma Delta. The following night droves of stu dents were able to fulfill their Wlio Wants to Be a MilUonairc fantasies with a program called Brainstorm Game Show. Students divided themselves into small groups (with a limit of 19 groups) and answered trivia cpestions. After five increasingly difficult rounds, a champion was declared.

However, in actuality living on campus is not as bad as some peo- ple make it out to be. Svire, you have to share a bath- room with all the girls on our floor, freshman Erin Poe says, but I ' ve met some pretty nice people while waiting to take a shower. That is exactly what dorm life is all about — not communal bathrooms — but meeting new people and making friends. Most of the friends I ' ve made I ' ve met in the elevators or in the halls, she said. Aside from meetiiig lots of new people, residential living also pro- vides students with a variety of activities to keep them entertained and involved in campus life.
