THE BEST OF TWO WORLDS PARENTS WEEKEND Welcome Parents!! met LR parents as they came on to campus September 27. The school plans a large agenda of things for parents and their children to do. Vacuum the floor! Dust the furniture! Make the beds! Clean the bathroom! Staighten the closets! The parents are coming! Yes, the day has arrived. You ' ve pre- pared for them and now they are here. Some of you saw them last month, but all of you are glad to see them again. Parents Day gives you a chance to in- troduce your Mom and Dad to your friends, professors, and new habits. (Such as the unmade bed, 3-week-old laundry and the empty beer can attempted to be hidden.) It also gives your parents a chance to squeeze your cheeks, check on your grades and make a last minute in- spection of your ring around the collar. But no matter how formal if may seem at first, the day provides everyone with a feeling of love and pride, from seeing their family once again. Shady Grove Band, a blue grass band, present- ed a bluegrass jamboree for the parents and students. With mother and father, Steve Richter smiles proudly. With the whole gang together, we have Pete Killam and his parents and Tim Ludwig with his parents. Tims father is Dr. David Ludwig, a psychology professor at LR. 26 Student Life

Climb up, climb down, but how do you get off of this? Dawn James tries her best on this tricky ladder. PROLOGUE CONT. new father figure of our family at school. A pizza party is planned at the lake and everyone enjoys food, fun, and freedom. The freshman dance is an excit- ing event because it is a chance to enjoy yourself and just have a good time. Prologue is a necessary part of the be- ginning of college for all freshmen and transfers. It provides answers, entertain- ment, and understanding, all of which are needed for the next class of Lenoir- Rhyne. Down on his hands and knees is Dean Ed Lewis playing his part in this prologue skit. Also act- ing are President Trainer and several prologue leaders. Standing on pegs is Sheryl Melchor and her prologue group. They had to walk around the circle of pegs moving together. Pushed up to the high beam is this freshman girl. Many hands brace her feet and ankles as they push her up. Student Life 25

Buying sweaters is Paige Thomas and her mother. Parents Weekend is a great time for students to get their shopping done, since they can often get a little extra financial sup- port from Mom and Dad. After eating, Chris Porter and his dad pose for the camera. Parents usually sample our LR cooking during this weekend. Student Life 27
