( hristmas Celebration The air turned cold and the first few flurries began to float from the sky. Thoughts turned to bright lights, candy canes and reindeer. As the Christmas spirit hit campus, plans were made for students to celebrate before going home. The traditional Festival of Lessons and Carols was celebrated on Sunday December 4, but the real preparation began on Friday. Approximately 40 people par- ticipated in the Hanging of the Greens festivities, sponsored by Christian Life Council. Everyone gathered in Kresge Hall to make the garlands that would decorate the Chapel during the Christmas festivities. The legend of the Christmas tree comes to life in the explanation by sophomore Jim Hawk. Reaching to put the garland in place, these three participants finish a long evening. Helping make the greens was special for me. I ' ve never done anything like that before and it made the ceremony much more special for me, explained freshman Nancy Henderson. Exhausted and covered in pine tar, the group went back to their rooms to rest, before getting up ear- ly the next morning to finish hanging the greens.

Various people delivered the 12 lessons, including Dr. Kathryn Gregg, Dean Dallas Bailey, Greg Burnell 24 Traditions
