Twenty-two Colleges Visit College Fair The College Fair, Wednesday, November 9, 1983, was the setting for twenty-two New Jersey colleges to confer with juniors and seniors con- sidering attending college. Two of the various colleges, Rutgers University and Princeton University, provided students with an opportunity to look at the state's most prestigious schools. The fair was open to juniors, in preparation for their junior con- ferences, and for seniors who had last- minute questions to ask before applica- tion deadlines or to get a last look at other college opportunities. Mrs. Sharon Hackett, organizer of the event, was pleased with the results. She believ- ed, The students are more receptive every year. Senior Peter Culos felt the fair was a chance to compare colleges without having to leave the school. In addition, to upperclassmen, the fair was open to the community. Mrs. Hackett said, It was an ideal opportunity for parents to learn about colleges firsthand. The opportunity for parents to be involved was a unique feature of this year's col- lege fair.

“Breaking” in a New Beat Egg roll ' inch-worm ' centipede crab ' 3- ' and moon walk - not words from outer space - or even from the garden - but terms used in the new form of dancing called breakdanc- ing. These moves were only a sampling of those performed at the breakdance contest during the highly successful Christmas Dance. The dance, held on Friday, December 9, 1983, and sponsored by the Class of 1984, far succeeded the hopes that were held by the class executive board. The dance netted an overwhelming $800 for the senior class treasury. Chief organizer of the event, Senior Repre- sentative-at-Large Judie Williams felt, As this was the first time that the ex- ecutive board of 1984 attempted to organize any function of this sort, I feel that the outcome of the Christmas Dance was fantastic. Midway through the evening the floor was cleared for the contest. Each contestant took the floor in turn and performed their dance. The winners were chosen by the reaction of the crowd. Four-year-old David Moltrie of Red Bank captured the first place spot The undeniable success of the Christmas Dance was attributed to the high attendance, the music, and the contest. The executive board was prompted by the turnout to plan another dance and Judie Williams could only hope the next dance would be half as successful!
