A §pring ©ra ition Highlighting the close of each academic year is May Day, another longstanding tradition at Hope College. Ideally an afternoon of rest and relaxation, May Day has become a means of “loosening up before exams. Classes end at noon, allowing students to participate in many events. A country- [ fair style picnic in the Pine Grove was the first activity, gathering everyone for one last time. Foot-long hot dogs, coke, | and popcorn were among favorites on this chilly but fun after- noon. Comedian Andy Andrews, former writer for Saturday Night Live, provided entertainment. His act ranged from McDonald's jokes to a juggling act with lightweight women’s I scarves. Julie Bosch was honored as this year’s May Day Queen, along with fellow court members Lori Visscher, Kathy Olson, Linda Wang, Melody Meyer, Lisa VanderWcide and Sarah Saddler. Academic awards were also given the sorority and fraternity with the highest overall grade point average. This year’s win- ners were the Delta Phi Sorority and the Arcadian Fraternity. Frisbee competition closed the afternoon with a Hope- Calvin game as well as the annual Gordon J. VanWylen Frisbee golf tournament. — Rayetta Klhart 25

§enior Party A A e in tradition 'I'his year a new tradition was born on April 31, 1982. With the theme of “10 Years Later, the seniors took a break to prepare for the week, and the years ahead. Dressed in visions of what was to come, many pregrads had a chance to meet and celebrate with fellow classmates, some for the last time. 'Phis reunion” was held at the Crow Bar of Coral Cables in Saugatuck. Arranged by a handful of ambitious seniors, the par- ty was a tremendous success, and it seems it will be continued by many seniors to come. 26
