1986-87 Year To Remember The year is rocketing to a finish: the days are flying by, the hours are vanishing into thin air, and the seconds are ticking off at a super- sonic speed. Seems like yesterday we were preparing for the Trilli- um Beauty Pageant, taking road trips to Biloxi or New Orleans, wearing torn, faded jeans, Coca- Cola clothes or Swatch watches, starting construction on the new dormitories, attending conven- tions, making late night visits to the truckstop, participating in Christ Focus Week, jamming at The Monkees, Lionel Richie, or David Lee Roth concerts, and chewing the famous state fair taf- fy. All these things were part of our lives that made 1986-87 A YEAR TO REMEMBER! -rw- s .' E- A 15
