The time has arrived August 23, 1980, the day that had long been awaited by many students and administration, finally became a reality instead of just a vision. As the new stu- dents arrived on campus, the administration anxiously greeted them with a warm hello and a friendly Bryan smile. Many of the students were boiling with excite- ment, while others were frozen with fear. The moment they had anticipated had arrived and now all their plans and hopes for the future were starting to take place. One of the most well remembered moments of the day was when the freshmen exchanged a one dollar bill for a red and yellow beanie to be worn at all times or else. . . . Other exciting times were meeting roommates and R.A. ' s, unpacking and getting situated in their new home. As the day drew towards an end, many students spent their time saying goodbye to their families and to their friends. Some said there was even a time of fear and loneliness as their families and friends drove down the hill. Those empty spots were soon filled, though, by new friends, new relationships, and the new excitement of college life. Surely this day, August 23rd, marked the beginning of a exciting and eventful year. Arrival 12

Meetings, meetings, meetings Freshmen, as upperclassmen so viv- idly recall, spend most of their time the first week of school going through many different types of orientations. This year there was the usual get ac- quainted time in Brock Hall, the fun and fellowship at Rhea House, and the meeting in Rudd on academics and handbook rules. The highlight of ori- entation week was the Student Union ' s fun and games party. The new stu- dents were divided into teams and dif- ferent games and activities took place. The majority of the activities were done barefooted. Some claimed the pine needles and rocks left permanent engravings on their feet. Upon return- ing, they found their shoes and socks scattered all over the basketball court. Now who would do such a thing? Their endurance was rewarded with a nice, big, cold, juicy piece of water- melon. After all. they deserved it. Orientation 13
