Orientation and activities fill time for arriving freshman Students busy even at the first The school year began far away for many stu- dents as they packed their belongings for the annual trip to school. Coming from everywhere in the Unit- ed States and from around the world, students looked fowvard to the first of the year. Although long hours of study and classwork lay ahead of them, meeting new friends and seeing old friends was the reason for the excitement of being back at school. And as students moved into their dorms and apartments, the moving-in process and enrollment gave them just that chance to renew acquaintances and form new ones. Freshmen orientation also gave new students a chance to meet others as the freshman class was initiated in the traditional style complete with beanies and Bop Cops. The Freshmen- Upperclassmen Tug-of War and football games, which the upperclassmen won, officially ended ori- entation. Classes had begun three days before the end of orientation and many students had taken their time gearing up for classes. Some students preferred to take advantage of such opportunities as Organization Day, sponsored by SGA, during which many school organizations had displays depicting what they were about. Other students chose to attend the entertainment activities such as the Biggie, the Freshmen Follies and the Cruse Family concert, which all took place within the first couple weeks of school. The first of the year was a busy time which stu- dents will long remember. Teacher of the year. Dr. James Hurley, gives the convocation address during the second chapel. Campus tours allow freshmen the chance to get acquainted with the new surroundings a week before classes start. First of the Yearl 13
