Oriental flair guides Winter semi-formal theme With the past year ' s fashions leaning toward an Oriental look, the theme chosen for the year’s annual Winter Semi-Formal was “Imperial Paradise.” Set for the evening of December 6, Association members found they didn’t have as much time for preparation as they thought. The week prior to the event, students diligently worked to have everything ready in time. “Once we had the theme, it still took us a while to figure out specifically what decorations we were going to have, remarked JoAnn Ardelean chairman of the decorating committee. However, the dance was successful. Decorations had transformed the cafeteria and commons into an Oriental garden. The hallways leading into both the cafeteria and commons area were lined with murals depicting Chinese scenes. Refreshments were served in the commons from a bamboo hut, representing a worshipping area. Fortune cookies were among the many things couples could choose to eat. Couples danced to the music of ‘Justice’ from 8 to 11 p.m. Girls left their bouquets at the tables when they went to dance, while others wore wrist corsages or corsages pinned to their dresses. After the dance couples went to restaurants where they had made reservations. It wasn’t unusual to see a table reserved for eight as friends went to the same place. he added space from the commons provides extra room to seat the 165 couples attending. The cafeteria serves for dancing. Winter Semi-Formal 17 Imperial Paradise
