In The Beginning . . . Orientation, the long process of becoming acclamated to a new situation. The very word prompts different emotions in everyone, depending on the shoes one is standing in. If you are standing in the scuffed Reebox, Spiffy or 9 West of a new incoming freshman, orien- tation means tests that could determine your next year, in- formation sessions that could lay to rest the many fears that beset you, and meetings, end- less meetings about everything from administration to zoo- logy. If you ' re wearing sensible sneakers with cushioned in- steps of a SWAT person (be- cause you ' ll be on your feet all day), it means organization, friendliness, helpfulness and sheer panic at times. To the varied feet of returning stu- dents, orientation is a routine and a time to get re-adjusted to life at Guilco. August 22 marked the date for the students ' arrival, but SWAT members had been on the ball for days by then, learn- ing to work together and to prepare the school and the new freshmen for orientation. The harried new kids on the block went through long, long lines and were poked and prodded. SWAT members smiled and directed people and rushed around. Registration was even more distracting ( . . . I ' m sor- ry, everything but IDS 101 is closed). Fun things were sched- uled right along with the IDS group meetings; the first night, freshmen mixed and mingled at an ice cream social and the movie Splash in Stern- berger. The dances of the year got off to a great start on the Milner patio on Friday night. Unfortunately the Mysterious Mister Mango day was rained out without even most SWAT members knowing what was going on. Every day of orientation is filled with official things and the equally necessary time to become acquainted with room- mates, hallmates, and all the interesting people and places of Guilford College. These frantic days eventually gave way to the calmer, but no less interesting routine of classes. Hopefully everyone got off on the right foot! Freshman Doug Shirley enjoys ice cream and con- versation with Karen Richter, Rick Lancaster and Kraig Keyes. Regislralion can cause anxiety. Michelle Masline, Troy Swann and Leigh Stone wait to be informed about their classes.
