28 Freshmen Orientation and Convocation Freshman Orientation Under the guidance of Rachel Stein. one of the most organized and concentrated Freshman - New Student Orientation programs in recent years took place the week- end of September 19. 1976. Over six hundred students and their parents participated in the weekend long pro- gram that gave them a much better and more realistic took at Baldwin-Wallace College. Several small groups, each containing one faculty advis- or. one student guide and several new students were arranged to give the program a personal. informative atmosphere. These groups met in informal sessions to discuss the many topics that would help the new student become better acquainted with college life and the as- sorted geographical locations of buildings and shops in the Berea area. A new program was arranged for the 1976 Orientation Program, the Big Brother - Sister Program. Up- perolassmen were paired with a freshman or a transfer student, the goal being to make the new student feel welcome and at ease. On Sunday, September 19. 1976, convocation was held in Ursprung Gymnasium. The brass choir, under the direc- tion of Dr. Alan Squire, provided music for the traditional procession of faculty. each attired in the academic robes of his college and degree. Both Dr. Bonds, College President, and Dean Malicky addressed a large crowd of parents and students. relating Baldwin-Waiiace history. accomplishments. and future goals. Also participating in the ceremonies were Reverend Mark Collier. College chaplain. Father Kordas of the New- man Center. and Jon Palmquiet. President of the Student Body. After a day of confusion. problems and good-byes. an all campus get - together was held in the College Union. A program called 'Union in Action was heid from 8 pm. to 9:30 pm. The ofiices located in the Student Union were opened in order to furnish accurate. informative in- troductions to the various organizations and their func- tions. As an added attraction, the games area in the Union sponsored a tree games night, open to all new students. The Grindstone interviewed a few freshmen to gain some insight as to why Baldwin-Wallaoe was their choice for furthering their education.
