N NUMBERS Among Centenary ' s Admissions Department ' s strate- gies for recruiting new students is a spiel about the differ- ences between our small college and big universities — At Centenary, you ' re more than just a number. Then at registration, the new student finds himself thinking, At Centenary, you ' re more than just a number, you ' re ten numbers. You ' re an ID number, a meal ticket number, a phone number, a STAN number, a room number, a park- ing lot number, ... But numbers stop when it comes to the closeness of students on campus. After a while you realize that Dick Anders knows your name and not your ID number. o OFF-CAMPUS STUDENTS Students from the Shreveport Bossier area comprise over half of the enrollment of Centenary. They drive to school, go to class, and drive home. They usually never quite get around to the social centers of campus — the caf and the dorms. These mysterious creatures can be seen only at registration where on-campus students with puzzled looks think, Who are all these people? p PARKING Centenary ' s parking lots range from perfectly smooth cement in front of James and by the Smith Building to muddy expanses filled with potholes on the far edge of campus. Even though there never seem to be as many spaces as cars, and the security guards are quick to issue tickets for parking in the wrong lot, the convenience of having a car makes all the parking problems seem small.

PARTIES Parties on the weekends make the weekdays worth it. The fall semester is sprinkled with KA Jungle Party, TKE Graveyard Party, Sig Pajama Party, Theta Chi Mafia, Chi- O Barnyard, Zeta Swamp Party, and Fall Ball. The spring semester has the formals which usually involve parties, pre-parties, pre-pre-parties for days ahead of time. Ev- eryone has their favorite parties to go to, and everyone loves to go to parties. First a day is announced for the party, then everyone suffers the indecision of who to ask and what to wear. Finally the night itself rolls around, excitement fills the air, the sun goes down, the music goes up, and the occasion has arrived. PLAYS Centenary ' s Theater Department produces two plays each semester. The Playhouse is usually a flurry of activity — building sets, rehearsing scripts, working on costumes, and planning programs. Opening night comes, the play is presented, and then the cast awaits reviews. This fall Madame de Sade and Medea were produced. During Interim, a musical production, An Evening With Lemer and Lowe, was staged. Guidebook • 25
