JW xeuMJoM Although most Agnes Scott students are here for the school ' s emphasis on aca- demics, sometimes the pressures of it all get to be too much, and one sim- ply must escape. To get off campus, Scotties have found a variety of es- capes from their various frustrations. To escape Calculus, English pa- pers, and sometimes even boredom, Scotties troop to nearby campuses such as Georgia Tech and Emory, as well as to such watering holes as PJ ' s, Tracksides, and Bash ' s. To es- cape the food, A.S.C. students prefer Casa Fiesta, the Freight Room, El Toro, and Subway. To get away from the same old scenery day after day and looking at the same people all the time, Scotties also frequent the movies. Fernback planetarium, church, and Marta to anywhere, and some stu- dents prefer a more academic excur- sion like an internship. Agnes Scott students, who believe that when the going gets tough, the tough go shopping, head for the malls, especially Lenox. A favorite way to take a break during a late night of studying is a quick stop at TCBY or a midnight run to Krispy Kreme. Noisy dorms send others scrambling to home or to their boy- friends. The same old food, people, work, and scenery can get boring, but A.S.C. students seem to know where to escape. Then with clear heads, they can return to school ready to plunge into their studies (?).

Joking Around At Junior Jaunt What do Egleston Chil- dren ' s hospital and the Cheshire Cats have in com- mon? Well . . . Junior Jaunt of course. As per usual, this year ' s Junior Jaunt was a big Dolly Purvis made her comeback as director with the help of Shannon Gibbs. Just like last year ' s Junior Jaunt, Junior Jaunt 1988 was a variety show. To open a show. President White, Dean Langford, and Dean Gottche made their debut as the fu- ture leaders of Agnes Scott. A few of their new pro grams included buying back all the Hub bricks in order to re- build the Hub. They also shortened capping to 1 day and changed the words to God of the Marching Cen- turies. The Moving of the pear trees reappeared at Junior Jaunt. Let ' s Move the Pear Trees again first appeared at the Junior Production for Black Cat, but because it was such a big hit, it was brought back by popular demand. Sam McClintock and Vee Kimbrell, being disgruntled with public safety, inade their gripes known. No Parking depicted the per- petual parking problem found at Agnes Scott. Ac- cording to Sam and Vee, Public Safety ' s solution to everything is the towing of a person ' s car. To end the show, we were granted the privilege of see- ing the Dolphin Club Per- form. Being deprived of their own pool to practice and per- form in be cause of the reno- vations of the student center and the building of the new gym, they took this opportu- nity to give a show. After the curtain call, it was time for the drawing for the senior raffle. Various staff and Professors offer gifts and services for the raf- fle and students pay 25 cents to have a chance to win. It seemed as sophomore, Pam Clemmons rigged the draw- ing, because she won six of the raffles. Overall, the night was great fun. Students got to take a study break, laugh, and hopefully win something all to benefit Egleston Chil dren ' s Hospital. President White, Dean Lankford, and Dean Gottsche all sing the new Version of God of the Marching Centuries. Renee Caudill and Tracy McMahon, senior officers, start the drawing for the Senior Raffle Winners. Poking fun at the ASC Public Safety Dept.. Vee Kimbrell and Sam McClintock sing No Parking. ■A
