A New Name Known as Desiderata since its in- ception in 1972, the Flagler College annual was rechristened this year as The Towers. Desiderata means goals to attain, peace and tranquility to strive for. The Towers expresses the same ideas and, we believe, is more repre- sentative of Flagler College. Flagler's twin towers, thrusting ever upward, also signify goals to aim for - the heights we endeavor to attain. The elegant spires, which so long have dominated the St. Augustine sky- line, are fixed in the mind of every Flagler alumnus, representing the sense of peace that goes with the fa- miliar and the well loved. l x 'Inf'-4- ' ' 1 4... 7, 1 ' 1 's , . ,,4. -fa gp fix, .W k ' UMW-v' ' ---V I A jen janv lr 5 f' 'J V A .v rl ' Y -4 ' A., - 4' g ' . , 0 '..,,, .. 53, J-:Lai ,L

Largest Enrollment Ever Enrollment topped the 940 mark as students flooded into Flagler for the opening of the 1982f83 year. Freshman received a warm wel- come from staff and orientation guides, all of whom offered plenty of help in lightening the rigors of the strange new experience that consti- tutes the first few days of college life. Orientation guides seemed to be ev- erywhere at once, conducting new stu- dents and their families anywhere they wanted to go on campus, answering questions, explaining the ins and outs of life at Flagler. Guides and room assistants had a chance to relax at a party just before the hectic orientation weekend began. Then it was on to the business of meet- ing and greeting, and making students feel at home.
