A .4- irst impressions Preview was a great way to introduce the cam- pus to the entering freshmen and the transfer students. This year, for the first time, students were placed in small groups with other students from their dorms. This gave the students a chance to begin their lasting friendships with their neigh- bors. Preview began on Thursday morning, August 25, with the students moving into their dorms. Once they were settled, the excitement began and continued through Sunday night. Being led by students also added to the Preview excitement. Preview began by the students attending several meetings pertaining to college life. Some of these were held in small conference rooms for the small groups. Others were held in the Culp Center or the amphitheater. Four-corner volleyball was played above the amphitheater, along with ffWin, Lose, or Draw? The small groups competed for prizes. The attendance was good for most activities. Because of the first impressions of ETSU, most students felt more comfortable on their first day of class after attending Preview.
