Students from com- Pl V pletely different re- gions and cultures and with diametrically op- posite interests con- verged here to expe- rience the JMU way . We arrived at our freshman halls, utterly ignorant of the impact that the university would have upon our lives, our thoughts and our personal spec- trums. Similarly, we re- mained unaware of the impact that we, as individuals, would have upon the school. How could we even begin to realize, as young and inexperi- enced freshman un- loading our station wagons, the marl that we would make after four full and produc- tive years? Being here brought out the most telling aspects of our personalities. It was here that we learned and grew be- cause it was here that we found the best part of ourselves.

Through such activities as experimental the- atre and community service, everyone found his niche. Groups for enacting religious and political beliefs v ere available to everyone. To vocal- ize views on environ- mental and moral is- sues, demonstrations were often organized. Whenever students were questioned about their particular interests, the varied and colorful responses represented a wide ar- ray of experiences. In- dividuality was the watchword.
