Transforming a small room into a new home with posters, plants, and other items, a record number of freshmen ea- gerly attacked the task of moving in for two semesters. Meeting new people and adjusting to dormitory life, some learn that college can pose its problems. To help relieve the tension, the ad- ministration sponsors a picnic and var- ious other orientation activities to allow the freshmen and the faculty to become acquainted with one another. When orientation comes to an end, many sighs of relief can be heard from freshmen who decide that college is not that bad after all.

The week is filled with ac- tivities to create a relaxed atmosphere for the busy student. After going through the process of handling parking stickers, making ID cards, and acquiring chapel seats and student handbooks, a break is very wel- come. The week is filled with placement tests and meetings, and moving in for resident students. To wrap the week up, students release their nervous tensions and frustrations in activities during field day.
