2 Ghosts .. . The East Tennessee area is known for its numerous ghosts. The students, faculty and administration are haunt- ed by ghosts of a different kind. These ghosts are our memories. No one can leave ETSU without memories of some sort. The days spent here may be some of the best, or worst, of our lives. Regardless, certain moments, im- pressions and people will remain etched as permanently in our minds as the mark of a diamond on a mirror. Throughout our lives, these memo- ries return to haunt us, as ghosts dwell- ing in an old house reappear from time to time. These ghosts are of every- thing from standing in line to register for classes, doing laundry at l a.m., pledging a sosority or even of watch- ing snow drift down to blanket the campus. Silently, these memories steal their way into our minds to give a fleeting glimpse of our days left behind. They linger with us, are cherished, and shared with friends and family like a favorite book. Like ghosts, our memories may be vague or crystal-clear, at times even disturbing. Mainly, they are just gentle reminders of other days that have en- riched and colored our lives. Should we be left without ghosts of any kind, our lives would be of a drab and dreary nature. tPicture by Ron Campbellj Opening ........................ 4 Student Life ....................

The Rathskeller, that respectable eating place known to those who were acquainted with it as The Rat, was renamed The Cave. Time has proven that you can take The Rat out of The Cave but you canTrt take The Rat out of the food.
