Academics play a major role in the lives of our students. Statistics show that stu- dents spend 80 to 100 hours in their liv- ing environment as opposed to 14 to 20 hours in the classroom. Therefore, ac- tivities play an important role in their college experience. Since Wesleyan is a liberal arts col- lege, our students are exposed to activi- ties ranging from Performing Arts Series to Intramurals. Wesleyan offers Intercollegiate Ath- letics to men and women. Soccer, bas- -swive- Scotl Booker goes for a punt. Righty Tami and Don enjoy the music of Carl Rosen. ketball, and baseball are open for men, and soccer, volleyball, basketball, and softball are open for the women. Tennis is open to both men and Women. We are members of the NCAA Division III and the Dixie Intercollegiate Athletic Con- ference. Other forms of entertainment are coffeehouses, dances, and concerts. There are various organization ranging from social to academics. At the closing of the academic year, students are honored for contributions to college service or academic perfor- mance.

Wesleyan's Annual Spring Fling brought lots of good times and good tans. This year Spring Fling took place on the 20th and 21st of April. A record breaking warm spell of tem- peratures over 90 degrees en- couraged people to come out with towels and suntan lotion to either watch or participate in activities. Saturday, the 20th started off Spring Fling. At 12 noon stu- dents, faculty and prospective students all came out to enjoy a picnic on the lawn. Carl Rosen was a lunch time entertainer. Many people caught rays, threw frisbees and footballs as they listened to Carl's songs and jokes. Later during the day our First Annual Derby Day got under way. Many people wore their eggs during the egg toss, lost their grip during the tennis racket throw and lost their bal- ance during the tug-of-war. Cooling down in a friendly I game of Simon Says, every- one was ready for the obstacle course. By the time that was over we were ready to refuel our stomach's at the pig-pickin. While we ate, we listened to Brice Street who were fol- lowed by Glassmoon. Again the blankets came out as we enjoyed an evening on the lawn. Sunday wrapped up another Spring Fling. Starting at 12 noon the campus went on wheels with the Campus Skate. Some people took their skates off at 2:00 pm to play around in the mudfest. Pi Epsilon battled with Sigma Phi Delta in a clean game of mud-football. Throughout the day many peo- ple stopped bythe patio to see a humorous view of themselves through the eyes of a Carica- tures Artist, Ion Ljungberg. Atv 5:00 pm another successful Spring Fling came to an end leaving everyone involved with many memories. Above rt.: Dr. Flowers and Dr. jones get their fill at the Spring Fling picnic.
