Kem Minis and Zel Gilbert, Co-chairmen of Orientation Orientation 1975: this year, an effort to help freshmen not only find out where their meals were . . . but also where their minds were and why. For the Committee, Orientation was months of planning, and days of A.M. to A.M. work . . . and excitement. For the freshmen. Orientation meant days of total confusion and despair and eager anticipation. An effort was made this year to focus on Why a Woman ' s College? (and perhaps; Why ME at a Woman ' s College? ). The success of Orientation 1975? It can only be lueasured by the Class of 1979. ORIENTATION 1975 16
