Sophomore Parent ' s Weekend was, ir showed parents a biological beauty part, adult re-education. Mary Ann Kruskamp they probably hadn ' t seen the likes of in a long oph Parent ' s Weekend Before Sophomores had a chance to turn around after midterm week parents began ar- riving for the extravaganza known as Sopho- more Parent ' s Weekend. Although some parents were seen lurking around school grounds that Thursday night, official activi- ties did not begin until Friday ' s chapel at which Dr. Michael Brown, Professor of Histo- ry, spoke. Later that afternoon parents had the opportunity to visit Dana Fine Arts Build- ing, Bradley Observatory and the Howland — Garber model of Solomon ' s Temple. Although most parents needed not to be reminded of their daughter ' s talents, sophomores treated them to a Creative Arts Production and a Dolphin Club Water Show. Saturday morning parents visited some of their daughter ' s classes, all the better to appreciate the luncheon and dessert coffee held afterwards in their honor. Parents were then left at their daughter ' s mercy for the remainder of the weekend. Right: One of the most memorable of the Agnes Scott experiences was the Sophomore Parent ' s Banquet boneless fried chicken. With such royal treatment as the service by smiling senior, students and parents were encouraged to hack it for another two years. Above: Dennis threw in his word of welcome at the tables. :•

Traditionally sponsored by the Junior class as a chari- ty fund-raising project, this year the Junior Jaunt projects raised over a thousand dollars for Florida ' s Duvall Home for retarded children. All four classes teamed up to coordinate the activities. The Sopho- more Banquet, with the Senior Raffle and the Freshman Slave Auction, was held Thursday at dinner. Later that evening students attended the Junior Class sponsored Talent Show, in which students and staff displayed their abilities to tell and take a joke, along with some excellent and unusual talent. The featured event on Friday was J.J. ' s Country Store, sponsored by the Juniors. Held in the Hub, the Country Store featured potted plants, study boards, a bake sale, and a Senior-sponsored Left-over Corner. I )B M
