8 • Student Life Divider Student Life As spring approached, students began to enjoy the last days of school From freshman orientation in August until graduation in May, FSC students were involved in numerous events. Whether it was Homecom- ing, plays, guest speakers, dances, banquets or concerts, there was always something for stu- dents to do. Happy Days served as the theme during Homecoming week. Students participated in such activities as a sock hop, twister game and float competition. Theresa Piscitelli was crowned the 1984-85 Homecoming queen. Throughout the year many guest speakers appeared on cam- pus. They included such names as Ray Meyer, former head bas- ketball coach at Depaul University, civil rights leader Dr. Ralph Abernathy and John Malloy, author of the book Dress for Success. At the fall concert held in November, Cyndi Lauper and the Bangles performed before over 3,800 fans in the Feaster Center. The FSC Masquers entertained students through various play productions such as Annie, Gigi, The Diviners, and A Doll ' s House. The campus Nickel provided a number of activities for students which ranged from card playing and dances to social gatherings and just relaxing. Not only did students rely on school activities, but they also enjoyed activities of their own. In their spare time, students used the swimming and racquetball facilities at the Feaster Center, shopped at the malls, visited the local establishments or just plain relaxed in their dorms or at home. As spring approached and the warm weather began to break after a long winter, the campus started to swarm with students enjoying the last few days of the school year. With graduation signaling the end of the semester, 600 seniors made plans to start off their careers. w TANNING SLOWLY, Pat- ty King relaxes between orientation planning ses- j slons during freshman counselor camp at Jack- son ' s Ml

The men ' s and women ' s basketball teams also fared well. The Lady Falcons battled their way to third place in the West Virginia Intercollegiate Athletic Confer- ence tournament and the men reached the state con- ference finals. New organizations appeared on campus, too, such as the Collegiate Singers, an off-shoot of what was formerly the Collegiate choir and the Falcon marching band added a flag corps to its ranks during the march- ing season. Homecoming, however, took a step back, specifical- ly into the 1950 ' s, that is, as students donned apparel of that era to participate in the weeklong activities, appropriately called Happy Days . Overall, it had been a year of reaching new heights for the friendly college on the hill. The extra efforts assured students, faculty, administration, staff, alumni and everyone concerned that Fairmont State College would continue its steady climb into the future. w% it %3 ' % i ■ » » Todd Jollll itw« n clasae In th Turlry •t the Weslyan game puts Shana Duckworth into the spirit of Mom. ...nil,. | Steady Climb • 7
