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.

Life Resumes at Flagler it Orientation guides lin special red-trimmed white Tvshirtsi are on hand in the rotunda to take students and their parents through the rigors of their first weekend at Flagler, At the table are Will Verbits lleftl, Rick Bartl, Delphine Jordan ISCA social chairman, president and secretary, respectivelyl, Emery Szekely, Cheri Cramer and Vicky Worth. Students immediately discovered the marble steps are the place to con- gregate, The sign-in table also was popular as freshmen picked up their orienta- tion packets and donned name tags which proclaimed their identities to the rest of the Flagler population. Once again the old rotunda hummed with noise and activity below the eight carved caryatids which ob- serve everything, but remain silent about what they see. The courtyard returned to life after its summer vacation, as students and parents passed beneath the welcoming arch and into a new world - the world of Flagler College. -,..-f 13. I 1 '- if
