The students were to become more responsible with freedom. the faculty recommended that all on campus during their free exercised their freedom and fast food advantage. Fr. 'Open campus allows more and gives us different sur- roundings. Yet other freshmen still felt that the administration had a good point about responsibility. Fr. Jenny Smith said, It makes us feel older because of the responsibility. The new open campus rule opened new doors for many underclassmen to catch a bite to eat on a free period or make their vocational program on time. Few complaints came of this new campus rule. The consensus of the seniors was slightly different than that of the underclassmen. They felt that they had been cheated in previous years. They felt the Senior Privilegen rule, al- though it was not relevant any longer, should still exist. Sr. John Carstensen said, We have been deprived for three years of going off campus and now anyone can do it. Other seniors had never heeded the rule to begin with. Sr. Amy Lambert said, I've al- ways gone off campus because security wasn't that tight, but now that I'm a senior I wish it would be more strict. Open campus filled the wants of the stu- dents and the needs of the parents. Although more responsibility had to be taken, most students seemed anxious to take onthe burden.

Gena Nolin, a first time visitor, said, I think it is great that the group is growing and leaming together? The FCA group had many activities that they offered its members.

They had several summer and winter retreats, which included camping, raft- ing, skiing, skating, and various bible related activities. FCA secretary J r.
