Friday morning, which began at 7:00 a.m., was full of assemblies, department tours, and testing. It was through the efforts of Robert McKane, Institute Liaison, that these and later programs were coordinated with the SOS schedule. Friday evening's activities included a swim party and a coffee house. On Saturday the annual orientation picnic was held. Due to a slight mix up John Tuxell, Food Service Liaison, had a hard time finding the event. It seems Food Service setup the facilities in the wrong field. Somehow the picnic, with over two thousand students, faculty, and administrators in attendance, ended up in the middle of the soccer field during a game. That evening, a beer blast featuring Your Father's Moustache was held in the Union. Transfering students moved in on Sunday afternoon. That evening Senator Charles Coodell spoke at a political forum, taking questions for an hour after his speech. After a day of registration, on Monday, the new students enjoyed an Interfraternity Council Beer Blast. Following an hour of departmental meetings, on Tuesday morning, many spent the afternoon becoming acquainted with over forty of RIT's student organizations. The organizational contacts was one of the many events coordinated by Tom Camiolo, Special Events Chairman. That evening a concert, which featured Melanie, was cancelled due to the performer's poor health. There were many persons who also were an important part of orientation. Apart from the committee workers, Greg Lewis, Financial Chairman, Roberta Lindgren, Secretary and Gary Tucker, Property Control deserve mention for their individual efforts. The most significant innovation in the SOS program was the First Relevant Educational Experience. (FREE) The program included a wide range of topic areas and featured resource people from both the campus and community. Subjects included; student rights, abortion laws of New York State, Planned Parenthood, birth control. Student Association, NTID's program, and RIT's relationship to the community at large. Another program, though not a part of SOS per se, was Interact. Sponsored by the Housing Office, the program brought together fresh- men and faculty to discuss various kopprlnun factors of interest to them. The groups were not assigned specific topics, but were left free to discuss any area.
