The long-standing tradition of guarding the fence by day in order to paint it after dark is continued. P E N I N G Opening 13 he events, activities, people, and places that have shaped 1986-87 at Carnegie Mellon are at once unique and traditional. The year opened by building bridges at freshman orientation, and the pace quickened as the watermelon bash and Greek theme parties followed. Alumni showed that Home is Where the Heart Is at Homecoming 1986, the Bangles performed as a prize for Carnegie Mellon’s MS fundraising efforts, and unprecedented talent was showcased at the annual airband competition. Our opening also includes some of the things that make Carnegie Mellon tick—from physical plant and security to Warner Hall and Entropy, and chronicles the world, national, and campus news events of the school year.

BRIDGING THE GAP Ben Arntmij Ben Krokxnky Counselor Jill Werner and Head Counselor Arnold Blinn enjoyed Freshman Camp just as much as the freshmen did. as they join the fun in Lake Lutherlyn. ORIENTATION PREPARES FRESHMAN FOR COLLEGE LIFE Freshman Camp, 1986! Location: Camp Lutherlyn, Butler, PA. The theme, “Bridges,” which was the backbone of all the activities, signified the closing of the gap between high school and college. Under the guidance of Head Counselor Arnold Blinn and the Student Affairs Department, a myriad of activities were carried out that included a six a.m. swim in the lake with breakfast on the shore (known affectionately to the campers as “Polar Bear Swim”), a barbeque, six-foot-long sundae, square dancing, late night hayridcs, a concert, cartoons, relay races, and late night pool parties. The freshmen who attended were enthusiastic about their experience at camp: “I’m so glad I went! I feel like I got a head start on meeting people and making friends, and getting acquainted with CMU!” said one freshman. Another described it: “The activities were a lot of fun—I really got a chance to meet people through them and also got to know the counselors.” And finally, “I don’t know what I would’ve done if I hadn’t gone. All of my closest friends are the ones I met at Freshman Camp.” Not only did the campers have fun, but the counselors did too. Many of the counselors attended Freshman Camp as freshmen, and were inspired to apply for the counseling job. One counselor, Angela Bcllisario, said that although she had not attended Freshman Camp in her freshman year, she applied for the counselor’s job after hearing how much her friends loved it. Freshman Camp was followed by four days of on-campus orientation, which all freshmen attended. Activities ranged from dorm parties to live bands on the Cut, the traditional campus scavenger hunt, a Class of ’90 talent show, movies in Scotland Yard, and tours of the surrounding neighborhoods. Freshman Camp and Orientation was an experience that will remain engrained in every freshman’s mind, and provided an exciting but sturdy bridge to college life.
