Ori Orien a ion: ANTICIPATIG Exceeded Only By The Actual Event On the morning of August 30, seven hundred freshmen packed into Kimbel gymnasium for orientation: some scared, some bored, others cocky. They comprised the largest entering fresh- man class in Coastalis history. The new students, freshmen and transfers, were greeted by Dr. Singleton, who welcomed them to Coastal and wished them luck in their endeavors here. As usual, most of them were terrified by the Vice-Presidentls suggestion that they spend two hours a week studying for every hour they spent in class, but, as usual, most of them forgot about it the next day. Peer counselors from the sophomore, junior and senior classes were on hand to assist the new arriv- als. These students administered surveys and talked Simon Spain and Donna Newman prepare ID.i U. with freshmen about advisement, registration, pro- fessors and co-curriculur activities. They also took students on a tour of Coastal's campus and helped them to locate their advisors. Lunch was served on the Student Union patio, with hamburgers from Cino's and entertainment by Chuck Dawes. Most new students began to blend into the scenery by the time they had finished their french fries. At the end of a long, hard day, the peer counse- lors congratulated themselves on a job well done with a party under the Atheneum. i ommy Stephen Eargle, and Danny Wilson attend Peer Coun- Student Government President Robert Drda addressed freshmen and new selor Training. directed by Al Poston. students at fall orientation,
