Winning these sports added points to the total score which decided the overall Greek day winner. The top honors for 1982 went to the Kappa Sigma fraternity. Once the activities of Spring were over and dreaded exams were finished, Clem- son students also found a way to struggle through the summer. Many went to the beach for sun and fun; others worked ei- ther at home or at campus; and some even went to summer school. No matter what students did over the summer, all agreed that it was too short. As the fall semester drew near, students developed itchy feet to get back into the College Scene.
