ttYou Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet was the theme of this year's freshmen orientation program, under the super- vision of orientation co- leaders Bill Hochmuth and Michele Kingery. Under their direction, orientation did a good job of living up to its theme. After the freshmen ar- rived, the college did ever- ything it could to make sure the new students had plen- ty to do. Something was scheduled, it seemed, for every hour of every day. Night time events were held for those not attracted to I'y! -i'9!.ri.p I'iaiIrIIoI ..' WESWLCAJCCIJEILELEKC oif-campus parties. The outdoor concert was a surprising success. con- sidering the problems that went into setting it up. No bands canceled at the last minute. Chris Beamsley, who coordinated the con- cert, was thankful when former Augie student Oar- land Burge agreed to lead a th ree person band made up of members of two separate bands. Further problems were caused by missing equipment and an inada equate power supply, but the band was good enough to make the listeners forget all that. Outdoor education was, as always, a chance to get out and have fun and meet some new people. Many students didn't attend, but those who did had a good. though exhausting, time. Later in the day, a picnic lunch was held outside of Westerlin. It was catered by Ken's Rib Haven, and stu- dents agreed that the food was excellent, though they realized that it was prob- ably the last time that the food sendce would serve them food like that. Capping OK the week was the popular graffiti dance and activities fair. Students were white T -shirts to the dance, and brought mark- ers with which to write on other people's shirts. The activities fair was in the next room, and freshmen got a chance to look at many of the varied groups on cam- pus, and to sign up for them. A Above, Kevin Hcllis.
