'cs u 3. Q 2 E S' e stu dams obno od ome people will never get the special op- portunity to travel to another country, while oth- ers can call one their second home. Students have lived in places ranging from the outbacks of Australia to the Great Wall of China for a variety of reasons. For some it was their place of birth. I was born there fin the Soviet Unionj and finally in 1979, my par- ents decided to emigrate to the USA, said Sr. Alex Gurevich. Others moved to other countries because of their parent's occupations. Jr. Jamie Onate said, My father is first secretary of the U.S. Embassy in Beijing, China, so we lived there for five years? From country to country the way of life differed greatly. It,s kind of hard to explain the differences between the states and the Orient. They are two different worlds, said Jamie. Many agreed that the ways of transportation were very different. Jr. Jacqui Glen said, In Australia, you have to be eighteen years old to drive. So, everyone catches a tram to school or the cityf' Fr. Kiat Granot from Israel said, You donit even dream about your own car until you are done at the Universityg the bus system worksf, American school can be considered less difficult after going to school in a foreign country. Jamie said, Chinese students are in school eleven months out of the year and for nine or ten hours a day. The classes are much more difficultf' Alex said, I feel that school in the USSR was more moti- vating, and kids felt good about at- tending school? The opportunity to live in another country was a great privilege, Jr. Tim Plagman, who lived in Saudi Arabia, said, It was a great experience, and one I'll never forget.

L ong-Pa elp! The feeling of complete confusion ran through the minds of the fresh- men as upperclassmen either ignored them and strolled calmly by or gave them wrong directions on the first day of school. Many freshmen were familiar with the building since they had older brothers or sisters who had gone through Overland. Said Fr. Steve Jor- dan, My sister went here and said it wasn't bad. Having friends that were seniors was also a big plus for freshmen. Fr. Roni Turner said, I have lots of friends who are seniors and l found them very helpful. Having classes all over the building was also a new experience which loft Scfioof expeetcrtiovis caused distress in several freshmen. Fr. Penny Cudabeck said, It was O.K. until my eighth hour class and that's when I got lostf, Initiation, the dreaded act, ran rampant through the halls and in the cafeteria, plaguing the freshmen dur- ing their first months. But Fr. Jason Houehins felt that students other then seniors were to blame. It was the sophomores! he claimed who were responsible for most initiations. Whether it was finding their ways along crowded halls, or fearing that some upperclassman might initiate them, the class of 1990 adjusted and found their way around. But Fr. Chris Waters summed up how many felt during the first month: f'Lost! SAFETY IN NUMBERS. Freshmen gather NOSING AROUND THE cafeteria, an un- around tables during lunch hour. Freshmen identified freshman pushes a penny along the were often found in the cafeteria since they floor.
