Variety of Activities Busied All O.S.A. sponsored most activities for the students, and faculty members were welcome to attend, too. Due to the success of the Wednesday night trial Cof- feehouses in May, 1975, it was decided that they would be continued throughout the 75-76 school year. During fall semester. Coffeehouses featured en- tertainment that included folk singers, drama presentations, international talent, poetry reading, bluegrass music, soul sounds, and rock ' n ' roll. Cof- feehouse amusement was provided by various school organizations, off campus talent, faculty members, and students. For the lecture goer, speakers provided insight on the future of Oglethorpe University and higher educa- tion, the assassination of Robert Kennedy, and lead- ership. Dr. Manning Pattillo, faculty members, and outside guests served as speakers for the lectures. A few major dances were held in the fall. The Hal- loween Party provided students a chance to use their creative abilities to compete in a costume contest, in which the Stormy Petrel outfit took the top prize. 15
