The Courses Committee is met, placement tests are taken, and then at last to the book-store. After getting settled room-wise, the freshmen, aided by their Sponsors and Sophomore Helpers, registered, stood in endless lines for conferences and schedules, and bought numerous books. They met Agnes Scott ' s President, Dr. Alston, and the Dean of Students, Miss Scandrett, and found them eager to be helpful. Party time ! The various classes and organiza- tions honored the freshmen with fun, food and fellowship. Getting acquainted games proved the world was really a small place, as many common acquaintances were discovered. Orientation was climaxed with a dance for Agnes Scott and Geor- gia Tech freshmen. A picnic supper on the hockey field came first — then dancing under the stars with Buttrick Drive as the ballroom. As Orientation formally ended, the new stu- dents knew they belonged to Agnes Scott, and most certainly Agnes Scott belonged to them. Miss Scandrett remembers each freshman ' s name, and quickly makes her feel at ease. Three things each girl learns to rely on: Dr. Alston ' s friendship, the bulletin board, and the mail room.
