Are The Stars Out Tonight, Mr. Sorenson? A student who was unaware ot what a star party was, might make a wild guess— a party with famous people in attendance ? Clever guess, but wrong A star party was simply a gathering of students at the school, at odd hours of the night, to observe the chilly, night sky, looking for unusual happenings The first of these was held on the Thursday morning of U.E.A. weekend. Mr Brent Sorenson, host of the night time gatherings, calls them “an unusual type of fun . The stu- dents met on the football field where there was a large tele- scope with which students could observe the skies. Warm sweet roles added to the casual atmo- sphere of this learning experience. Many might think. “It's crazy to get up at 4 a m. just to observe a bunch of dumb stars and stuff, es- pecially at school. but they have never had the fun of a star party and the thrill of discovery the beauty of astronomy.
