A Formal Celebration Gathering in tiie lialls of the Hilton, stude off of the dance floor. ' Twas the season of Christmas, and the Binford girls once again treated the cam- pus with their annual Christmas Formal. This year the big event was held at the Hilton in downtown Greensboro on Fri- day, December 6, 1985. Everyone came to the dance decked out in holiday splendor. The music was terrif- ic, and the small dance floor was packed and overflowing during nearly every dance. Many students extended their holiday celebration to a series of private parties upstairs. The hotel wisely and generously reserved the sixth floor of the building for the Guilfordian festivities. All in all the evening was a great success; the Hilton suffered little and a wonderful time was had by all. President Rogers lets himself go on the danccfloor. Dressed up in classy clothes and smiles. Sam Jones. Nicole Gaymon. and Martha Barnctt enjoy the dance.

A Holiday Gift A Christmas Offering, presented by the Guilford College Choir on December 8, 1985 was spiritually uplifting and es- tablished the Christmas spirit for many, said director Edward Lowe. From Founders Hall to Dana ' s Entrance, the sidewalks were lined with luminaries, lend- ing warmth to that Christmas spirit. This year ' s program included guest per- formances by the Carolina Brass Quintet and soloist Amy Lavietes, a graduate of Greensboro College joining the Guilford presentation from Paris. The choir performed beautifully for the many students, alumni and guests that at- tended. Accompanied by organist Timo- thy Lindeman and an Instrumental En- semble, the choir sang classical pieces from Bach, Mozart, and Handel, as well as traditional favorites. Glory be to God in the Highest featured the solos of sopra- nos Pam Vesilind and Jane Adams, and Mary had a Baby featured the soprano Livia Wade. Other Guilford soloists in- cluded Jason Reid, Suzanne Sigmon, and Robert Stoddard, all adding a special feel- ing of pride for the talents of fellow stu- i dents. I This year ' s choir welcomed the voices of | faculty member Rudolph Behar and nu- merous Guilford Alumni. When asked how he felt about the evening ' s perfor- mance, Ed Lowe smiled and said, The choir members distuinguished themselves, and I felt a great sense of pride. Tenors Robert Stoddard, David Randall and Jason Reed are joined by English professor Rudy Behar and alums Mac Herring.
