Debbie Hull, Alicia Phillips, and Anna Moore are getting some sun while listening to the Cruis-o-Matics during Octoberfest. Octoberfest Food, Friends, Fast Times Octoberfest is the second big ' party'' that occurs in the fall. For the Freshmen it is their first exposure to Queens Parties. Octoberfest is a 3-day occasion with an informal dance on Friday night, a formal dance on Saturday and the Lawn concert on Sunday afternoon in the Academic Quad. This year however, there was only an informal dance on Saturday night. This came about because there were not enough people to have two dances. The Special Events committee decided that an informal dance on Saturday night would cover the demand to party. Everyone who participated in Octoberfest had a great time. The Cruis-o-matics sang old rocK-in-roll tunes on a hot Sunday afternoon to a crowd of one hundred listeners.

IA KURDT and BRENDA VARNER show rushees the bond between Sisters grow with a song and ce skit during a Party. Fall Into Rush '86 RUSH is an extremely hectic but exciting time on Queens College Campus. It is a time of mixed emotions from scared and worried to anticipation and having fun. From the Sisters' side of Rush, there is a tremendous amount of preparing to do. Plans for Rush begin in September. Thirteen parties required a lot of time and many closed weekends. Extensive cleaning of the houses, moving furniture, decorating the houses, gathering up the costumes, and creating and practicing the skits were all necessary in making Rush such a success. The Greek Sisters felt that meeting as many new students as possible was a benefit to the rushees as well as the houses. Sisters from Alpha Delta Pi, Chi Omega, Kappa Delta, and Phi Mu tried to get the message across to others that the Sororities offered friendship, service, scholarship, and a terrific time. In other words. Go Greek. The dedication of the Sisters paid off. The parties went well and many of the rushees decided to pledge. Bid Night topped Rush off with excitement as the new pledges ran to each house, and the relief that another successful Rush was completed. As rushees wait outside the Chi Omega house, The Sisters on the inside prepare to take each rushee to the land of Omega. 19
