President Webb leads the recession of Faculty and Graduating Seniors. Convocations Offer More Than C.P. Credit The College believes that participation in corporate worship and learning of theological and spiritual truths are integral to the education of the whole person and strongly encourages regular attendance at the excellent programs in Brown Memorial Chapel and in Kilpatrick Auditorium. Recognizing the value of the gathering of the faculty, administration, and student body as a campus community from time to time, the faculty has established the period from 11:00 am to noon on Thursday as a period reserved for such gatherings for academic and religious purposes. No other meetings may be scheduled during this period, by either faculty or students. Cultural Perspective credit is given to stu- dents for this participation. 27

All Smiles And Small Talk . . . Imagine ... It is 90 degrees outside. You ' ve just finished lugging four suitcases, your hope chest and seventeen assorted boxes up seemingly endless flights of stairs, maybe three? Now, you ' ve got to put on your most durable, everlasting smile because ... it is Rush Week. Each rushee endures a week of examinations and scruitiny by eagle eyed members. It is a week of parties when conversation can range from Where are you from to What are you majoring in? , but when what rushees hopefully can find is a group which makes them feel at home. Many wondered if it was all worth while, but those who made it through that week are now Greek pledges and soon to be Greek Actives in one of six of Centenary ' s Greek Organizations. Sorority sisters Meg Curtis and Aimee Franklin anxiously await the end of Rush activities. Theta Chi members Take it Easy outside of the frat house. Kappa Sigma became 52 men strong with a pledge class of 14. Zeta Tau Alpha proudly displays their crest and letters outside the house.

The Sub Is Not Under Water! Contrary to popular belief a SUB is not always a vessel full of sailors that submerges under the water for long periods at a time. Rather it can be and is a building on Centenary College campus where students cong regate for the sole purpose of enjoying themselves. Like the before mentioned sub (as in marine), food is available for consumption. Though the menu may be slightly different (for example, Deli Casino ' s famous Gent sandwich), goodies are there for the munching. Let me elaborate on many other items and activities the C.C. SUB has compared to the Navy ' s version. While munching on delicacies such as poboys, yogurt, or the famous coffeecake, you can kick up your keels and enjoy your favorite program on the big screen T.V. in the Coffeehouse. But beware, the T.V. has magical powers that cause it to be flipped to All My Children at 12:00. There are also VCR movies almost every night with a wide variety to fit all taste. And mentioning taste, there ' s free popcorn to snack on while enjoy- ing the movies. If you enjoy a challenge the SUB has video games, ping pong and pool. Many important issues have been settled over a friendly game of pool. I want to thank the students, faculty, administration, and staff of Centenary for helping to make the SUB not a sinking ship, but a strong vessel where friendships and fun memories were formed. Kathy Heard, Director Student Activities The ping pong tables are used a lot during the break tii Organization Fair offered many freshmen the opportu ty to get involved in student activities. During break many students go to the Sub for a gam ' of pool. 28 • Student Life
