DORM LIFE It ' s your first time away from home and your roommate is some- one you ' ve never met before. As the semester gets on its way, you and this stranger are becoming very close. It is your roommate that wakes you up in time for that 9 a.m. biology class, gets you the date you ' ve been dying to have, and is willing to listen when no one else has time. Open Dorm is an exciting new term on our campus. In the past open dorms were only allowed two nights during Homecoming week, one night for the girls ' dorms and the second night for the guys ' dorms. This year the administration was per- suaded to allow students what they ' ve requested several times . . . open dorms. The dorms are open every Tuesday night from 7 to 10 p.m. alternating weekly, girls ' dorms to the guys ' . Each dorm room has also been equipped with cable TV and tele- phones this year. The phones have three-way calling for on campus calls and students have the option of us- ing their credit card or call ing collect to call long-distance. Now not only can Becky call Sandy, but she can talk to Sandy and Leslie at the same time. Bryan can call home from his room instead of using the not-so- private pay phone in the hall. Dorm life at Northwest continues to make a difference in the lives of many students. — Karla Parks ▲ Guy Pulliam and Karon White (top right) participate in a joint shower just for fun.

PEP RALLIES Having a championship football team is not a job just for the play- ers and coaches. It requires the support of the whole campus. One factor which helped develop school spirit in our football team was the campus participation in pep rallies. Along with the spirit competi- tions, there were performances by the cheerleaders, band, and Rangerettes. We cheered for our team, coaches and team captains who gave speeches and we laughed at the faculty members who tried their hand at cheerlead- ing. It doesn ' t take much to rally us all together and when we do, we all win. — Darrell E. LaRiviere ▲ The cheerleaders are pumping up the fans before the Homecoming game against Mississippi Delta which led to a 47-20 victory. Brenda Gray, Mary Ann Burkhead, and Jill Ferguson pull together to let the Rangers know faculty and staff are behind them all the way. ► ▲ Rose Mary Simmons, Dr. David Haraway and Dr. Marilyn Comer try to show the cheerleaders how to do it at the tailgate pep rally.
