Garry Smithy Sorority rush has been called frantic and hysterical at times, but it is a great way to meet people and make new and lasting friends. Those young women who chose to go through Rush and the Greek life while at school, never seem to regret it. During Homecoming week, they have the chance to get back together and reminisce about the old days even though they may not have been so long ago.

RUSHING BY By Vanessa Moore We have succeeded once more in surviv- ing sorority rush. Rush is a week devoted to getting ac- quainted with the five national sororities on campus. These sororities, Alpha Delta Pi, Delta Zeta, Kappa Delta, Phi Mu and Sigma Kap- pa, each center their respective parties around selecting those girls who seem best suited for their particular sorority. College women who decide to journey through rush can expect a week of shattered nerves, laughter, tears, dreams, and fears. All this in hopes of finding the right sorority for them. The first three nights each rushee Visits all five sororities. The fourth night they can attend three theme parties. Finally, rushees attend three preference parties which are designed to finalize the rushees' choice as to which sorority they will pledge. 20 i Student Life tAndenne Lopezi tAdrienne Lopezt

When Hunger Strikes Food is a wonderful thing. It gives us strength and health, and by middle age it usually gives us a gut as well. I have prepared myself for such and don't want to be disappointed. Students who dine here this year really have no cause to be disappointed either. The food service we have now receives fewer complaints than the last few we've had. Not only that, there is a lot less guess work in the consumption business. By guess work, I mean guessing what really went into that stuff on your plate. Personally, I never found it appetizing to have to dissect everything before it is injested. Takes away from the fun, you know? The food service now provides something for everyone. For a hot plate lunch, a student can go to the third floor of the D. P. Culp Center and enjoy a variety of buffet items at the Main Meal. On the other side of the wall you have your choice of soups, salads, and sandwiches at the Lite Bite. By Tom Kirkland Bennigan's has recently become a very popular place to go with friends. They serve food, drinks, and fun. 22 l Student Life On the second deck, fast food is the order of the day. At the Eat and Run, one can enjoy ham- burgers, chicken, or breakfast items. The student can have it ready and eaten before the Biology final. The Cave, located on the first floor of the Culp Center, is the place to go if you have the time to eat and socialize with your friends. All sorts of delicatessen goodies are there just for the asking. There is a juke-box and television down there for your enjoyment.
