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
