United Way benefits from settling down in the spring semester, most students realize just how many (or maybe how many too many) hours they have signed up for. Things may look bleak, but students sigh, ...if I can just hold on for a week and a half, everything will be all right. The anticipation of the Delta Sigma Phi Lawn Party, a United Way fundraiser, is more intense than for any other party of the year. In fact, this year students came from many different universities in the state, including some from the coast, to participate in the FUNd raising. Some students found that they even got up a little earlier than usual that Saturday to get ready. However, it all seems worthwhile once the bands start playing and the refreshments start to, well...refresh. This year ' s party began rocking about noon and continued longer than any normal person could possibly last. Although the skies were overcast and there were sprinkles of rain, the crowd seemed to have more fun than a Club MTV cameraman. And after the funky-romantic- Motown-obnoxious-loud music of Liquid Pleasure and the progressive music of Dreams So Real, you couldn ' t help but have fun. One of the high points of the afternoon was the donation ceremony in which the brothers of Delta Sigma Phi presented the United Way with a check for about $9,000 and a promise of more to come. With that presentation, as if nature had declared that now this party was officially good, the clouds broke and the sun shone. The masses partied hardier and when the people could party no longer, they went home. Everyone was checked to make sure that they were safe to drive, because Delta Sigma Phi wanted to make sure that they would be back for the even larger lawn party fundraiser next year.• lawn PARTY Alcohol abuse? No, proper party etiquette states that after dousing one ' s companion, one must apologize by dousing one ' s self. Chris Hondros A new way of seeing things at the Lawn Party.

College fashion Trends change faster than a Carl Lewis sprint If one looks in the dictionary, he or she would find fashion defined something like this: the current style, prevailing custom or mode of dress, speech, manners, shape, make and conduct as established by the dominsate section of society or the leaders in the fields of art and literature. So knowing that definition and the ways of the industrial world, one could easily say that fashion moves from one trend to another quicker than the blink of an eye. Most college students have limited budgets, therefore, they can only admire the real world ' s high fashion in magazines. But students are the movers and shakers of tomorrow and this fact makes their ideas of fashion tomorrow ' s trends. Here are the fashions of the 1990-1991 school year captured in living color and surreal black and white so 20 years from now our children can laugh at us and say you used to dress like that?! • Marc Kawanishi Purple goes with Debbie Mathis as well as individual style goes with the School of Design campus. Near D.H. Hill Library, Jean Bragassi shows how heart-stopping red can be. Just ask Brent. Meghan Day shows lovely lines and forms. The sweater you ask? Prime for the ski slopes. 18 Student Life
