Emor Village A New Look For An Old Tradition Wrf-K.,.- if L-,,-9.1 l The Village Cafe offers a new mid-afternoon retreat ' for students in the Emory village. 24fVillage l Emory Village is the world to many stu- dents, especially those without cars. The Village is a source of a nice change of pace and also some bitterness. Since the time of the fire in January 1979 the face of the Vil- lage has gone through some drastic changes. Many stores have closed, new ones have opened, restaurants have expand- ed, and others have just survived. Before the fire there was a bookstore that competed with the Emory Bookstore. Doo- dah's Records closed last year along with a jewelry store and a hardware store. Some of the newest members of the Village are Cot- ton Casuals, a men and women's clothes storeg the Marathon Shop for sporting goodsg Emory Village Laundry, Arnold's Archives, a bookstore, and Turtle's Re- cords. The Silver Moon, a novelty shop with soft sculpture and ceramics, has al- ways existed as the same type of shop. However, the name has changed several times. Most restaurants in the Village have un- dergone major renovations in the past two years. Everybody's extended their dining area by adding a glasshouse type room. T. I-Ienderson's built an outdoor patio and Lullwater Tavern built a dining area with a sunroof. jagger's has made room for the Village Cafe, Currier's Flowers, Steve's Ice Cream, and a magazine stand. Other members of the Village have sur- vived without competition or loss of clien- tele for years. Jagger's remains one of stu- dents' favorite drinking places, and finally there is Kroger, a big source of bitterness for most students. It is wonderful to have a grocery store so near, however, the lack of competition has made Kroger's a second rate store. - The Village provides students with a con- venient place to get a good meal, a drink, some records, and clothes. However, most students with cars enjoy the freedom of choice. - Helen Bledsoe .41 i I ' ITU' I J XR 15111 'E-.. N Q0 N .li Sa 5-Y 'Ulf' wig: j itil vb! 3

5 I L l Gonzales President Laney welcomes students back to school at Convocation. Returning to school after sum- mer vacation, Sian Llewellyn and Allison lckes carry boxes to their room. 2o,f'Orientation So, Thi Is Good morning. Welcome to Winship Hall. Good morning. Here's the key to your room, your T-shirt, and your orientation packet. When you get a chance you should go through it, but for now please note that your swim test is tomorrow at 8:30, language place- ment tests are tomorrow at 1:00, Rush begins to- morrow night and . . . So began college life for hundreds of Emory freshmen. This year orientation was only five days long compared to the eight days of previous years. However, the same number of activities were jammed into the five days. Many activities such as the usual paper signing and information sessions were the same for college freshmen anywhere. Oth- er activities were solely to acquaint freshmen with the different services and organizations available on campus. After the initial shock of an 8:30 swimming test and the humbling experience of language placement tests, most freshmen settled down to make new friends and get accustomed to their new surround- College lngs. Monday through Wednesday the days were heav- ily scheduled with advisory meetings, registration and various seminars about every aspect of college life. One freshman felt that orientation was too busy and everything was scheduled at the same time. Most freshmen agreed that the hardest deci- sions they faced all week were which activities to attend. In the evenings there was some variety of social activities. Rush began Sunday night and continued throughout the week. For those who weren't inter- ested in Rush there was a volleyball game and a square dance sponsored by the Campus Ministry. Also, as the RA's can testify, there was no lack of parties in the dorms. Although orientation was shorter and extremely busy, it was a great success and this year's freshmen adjusted quickly to college life. This change in ori- entation is just another example of the changes taking place in every aspect of campus life. - Lynne Harwell 'L 'J' .ls 1'
