more, Fogelberg in Hurley ' s 300 seat auditorium proved to be a very spe- cial performance and an enjoyable break from the routine drudgeries of college life. FOREIGN STUDENTS Why anybody would travel thou- sands of miles from home to live in Shreveport is an open question. Still, Centenary boasts a rather large pop- ulation of students from other coun- tries. The main disadvantage of the foreign student is having to be stuck here over Thanksgiving break, along with trying to cope with the language barrier (i.e. Rip off? Got burned? I do not understand. ).

The new rules have had little effect, how- ever, for Centenary is too firmly rooted in its Southern tradition to be transformed easily.
