A tired O.N.U. student demon¬ strates the only effective way to re¬ cover from a heavy exam filled week. There was always something to do. All books aside, students broke loose and headed in all directions to explore the ever-widening spectrum cf activities available outside the classroom. That spectrum was almost as staggering as the diversity cf the university itself. Some students discovered emotional refuge in parties or a night out on the town. Still others found a financial sav¬ iour for bills in employment on and off campus. From work to parties, student life existed ... all contributing to the molding of tlte Ohio Northern student. Stacked crates of junk food and O.N.U. collectibles are com¬ mon in almost every student ' s room. 6 STUDENT LIFE

Conning Together SHOW THAT PRIDE An ominous silence hung over the town of Ada at the end of August. The streets and shops were empty, and the peo¬ ple waited ... waited in dread for the return of the Ohio Northern stu¬ dents to campus. That ' s right, the students were coming back and they would be ready to come together and celebrate the beginning of a new school year. Amidst the hassles of moving in, the fun began with various theme par¬ ties, rush picnics, and oth¬ er get-acquainted activi¬ ties. The students came together as they formed mud volleyball teams, as they cheered at football games, as they built homecoming floats, and as they hit happy hour at the Beagle”. Students came together for a spe¬ cial fun filled year at Ohio Northern. Coming together to start a new school year was still an exciting event at O.N.U. although Ohio Northern was a small uni¬ versity with an enrollment of only 2,500 students. What the university lacked in size, it made up for in spirit. Whether it was the spirit of athletics as the students cheered on their team, the spirit of friendships as they made memories, the spirit of ac- complishment as they worked toward their ma¬ jors, or the spirit of living as they procrastinated with their studies, the stu¬ dents at Ohio Northern came together and showed that pride! Performing during a half-time show are trumpet players Brad Shaffer, Joyce Shellenberger, Nan¬ cy Ellinger, Amy Maki, and Patty Aron. Heading off the football field after two tough quarters is the O.N.U. Bear ' s football team. Finding the beginning of the new school year to be a time of fun and games are Mike Haas and Doug Kuhlman. OPENING 5
