MIKIE PEACOCK Mikie is a girl who forges ahead to the new. She does not wait to see what lies around the next corner-she runs to meet it head-on and enjoys it, every bit of it. She knows how to make the most of the moment, how to enjoy being with a crowd, how to enjoy being alone. Mikie is activity: rainy days don't mean depression, but long walks, the beach is not for passive sunbathing, but for running along the shoreg trees are not just for appreciative gazing, but for climbing. Mikie lives in the world of hard rock and folk music, splashy colors, and Rod McKucn. Traditional skirts, sweaters and knee socks do not belong in her ward- robe. Mikie is much more at home in levis and mini-skirts. And her rough loomed poncho is a familiar sight on cam- pus. Here special idiosyncrasy is rings-her hands usual- ly display several. Mikie's love of Edgehill shows the 'Gbeing alone part of her nature. She is at home in her chaotic room, with all her stuffed animals, who are often joined by the Edgehill cat. And too, she is at home in the old-fashioned living room, watching TV, and working on some new handicraft. Life for Mikie is not to be organized, planned out for every moment. It is to be full of surprises. No matter if surprises mean confusion. Mikie's confusion is the type to be penetrated, explored and enjoyed. II7

SI-IARGN ROSE Sharon is ever-changing-her moods are extreme. Her joy is completely unbounded and releases itself into leaps in the air accompanied by irrepressible laughter, clap- ping hands and a beaming face. Depression finds Sharon sitting in her room for hours pondering her problems and carefully working out their solutions. This task accom- plished, she returns to the smoke room ready for an exer- cise session ora hand of bridge. Given to acting on sudden whims, Sharon will suddenly decide the North Wing smoke room lacks Christmas spirit, will connnandeer every jar of paint she can Hnd, gather her friends, and set them to work, paint brushes in hand. The result is a myriad of angels, candy canes and snow- men, the piece de resistance being her own Rudolph the lled Nosed Reindeer. Later in the evening she will touch down to earth to study for an impending final. But, she's really much happier viewing the world from her vantage point somewhere in the clouds. Born to a family of sentimentalists, Sharon positively adores dogs, children, and horses. The sight of one or all three will generally draw a long sigh. Finding joy in the very small things, she saves her worry for large problems. All efforts, from speech projects to the St. George Play, are whole-hearted and successful, and her approach to what lies ahead will be no less vigorous. II9
