Chats Campus Life, 1960: - -Ill Due to the isolation of Occidental College in its early years fespecially during the pre-automobile daysj, the students divulged in numerous activities, despite strict moral standards imposed by administrators. Rope- Rush, an exciting muddy contest between freshmen and sophomores and Sophomore Stunt Night, involving wit and talent, were popular all-campus events in the Gay 90's. The Roaring 20's saw the beginning of glee club,s Home Concert. They were staged in the new Hillside Theater. Dancing was allowed on campus in 1922, smoking would have to wait a little while longer. An OXY student captured the national record of gulping thirty-nine goldfish during the goldfish-gulping fad of 1939. His record was short lived as eastern competitors surpassed hisrecord an hour later. The interfraternity sing and the serenading of women's dormitories of the Thirties have since been replaced by inter-dorm yelling bouts. Today, in view of the college's relaxed attitude and their attempts to bring culture to the campus, dances, dramas, and cultural events are constantly scheduled. Dances flowing with spirits and resounding to the beats of drums and stomping feet are a regular campus feature. The artist and travel series, with their origins going back to shortly after World War II, the movie series, and guest lecturers provide students with a break from their studies and a chance to broaden their knowledge.
