Orientation? Sounds Eastern; Well, It Was Foreign to Us— 1 hrci- dix s bctorc uppirclassniL-n arrived, treshmen, excited and scared. Hooded the campus to be orientated. The majority of the new bo s sho ed into Hunter ' s Firetrap, and girls herded into Bostwick Barn. We brought all the junk collected for ears and dumped it into the room that u as to be nur home tor an eternit ' ot nine months. We became acquainted with the strange character w ho was to share that home, then joined the other green ones and aimlessly stood in line at the chapel. Someone shoved us badges and told us to wear them ' til Homecoming. Cjosh, you mean I gotta wear this silly nameplate tor over a month? That night we uent to a party in the gym. pla ed games, and got acquainted. The ne.vt morning the orientating committee took us on a tour ot the campus, told us about the million and one organizations that exist, the buildings, courses, tacult ' , and traditions — all were explained in de- tail. Besides tr ing to remember all this, we were expected to cram into our jumbled brains the words of several school songs. This grubbed on for two days, and after registration the third day all we wanted to do was climb in bed and forget it all. But no, there was a dance at the Community House — yeh, a compulsory dance so the upperclassmen could look you over.
