“So you see Hippie, there were just as many good times as there were bad. But we’ve spent enough time on the bad. Let’s remember some of the good. Remember the Bloodmobiles? They were great!” “Yes, Old Man, I remember. It seems like we were all the time sticking ourselves for something that year.” On February 12, 1981, the Red Cross Bloodmobile visited our campus. Students, faculty, and administrates donated a total of 160 pints of blood. Although the projected goal was not reached, the senior class sponsored event was a definite success. Local Red Cross offi- cials and senior class officers wish to extend their apprecia- tion to all those who contri- buted so generously to the effort. 27

On Nov. 4, 1979, Iranian students stormed the American Embassy in Iran. This seige started a take over of the embassy that lasted for 444 days. Unfortunately, the Embassy wasn’t the only thing taken over. There were 52 Americans that would not see their homes nor their families for fifteen and a half months. But finally, on Jan. 20, 1981, the Americans were released. And how we celebrated. There were fireworks and Christmas tree lightings. Yellow ribbons and signs went up all over America. Signs that told the world that we were glad to welcome our people home again. AC showed the world that they too were happy to greet the former hostages home once more. So while the former hostages were being greeted in New York with 1,250 tons of confetti, students all over campus were making signs to put up out side their dorms and rooms. Waters Hall, Harper Hall, Hilley Hall and Bulldog Manor all got in on the act. Jan. 20th was also the day in which Ronald Wilson Reagan was inaugurated as the 40th President of the United States. President Reagan became the oldest man to ever hold this office. (He was 69 when he entered office.) There are times in which it is good to let reality enter the world of fantasy. Jan. 20, 1981 was one of these times. The Wilson Daily Times Mor, Hum I I i’ntn mi u s tni tmfion V ol 54, No 287 WILSON fUKSOU MTKONOON JANTAIIY 20.

WHO SAID YOU DON’T NEED ANOTHER HOLE IN YOUR HEAD There were several “little” fads that went around in 1980-81. One of the most popular was the pierced ears. Now it’s not that hav- ing a pierced ear was so unusual, it’s the fact that some of the ears that were pierced were pierced two, three, and four times. In fact there were some girls walking around with as many as seven holes in each ear. And it wasn’t only the girls who were wearing ear- rings. The guys got into the act too by adding a single hole to their left ears. Another fad that went around campus was the book bags. It was very fashionable to carry your books in nap-sacks, back-packs, and shoulder bags. “Prep” also became very “in”. The alliga- tor died out to Polo, and unless you wore “the right” jeans, you might as well of worn nothing at all. Other “preppy” items in- cluded pink shirts, green skirts, khakis, ber- muda shorts, big plaids, see-through yellow pants, boxer shorts, penny loafers, add-a- beads, button downs, bermuda bags, and lots of make up. We even had a “Preppy Handbook” that told us how to put it all together. 28
