2 1. Married students Mike and Candy Herron find that the percent- age of married couples attending college is rising. Because of this, a whole new lifestyle, both on and off campus, has developed. 2. Chorale members present Handel's Messiah as a part of SSC's Christmas activities. 3. President Hibbs has begun his 6th year at SSC and under his administration the college has become a flexible institution geared for growth. By listening to the students and get- ting their personal views, a more student oriented program exists. Not only is the Student Senate a governing body, but also a group that sponsors dances, films and numerous other activities through- out the year. 4. Senate President, Bill Sharp, leads a discussion of the homecoming functions of '74. They were responsible for co- ordinating the details of the Revue, parade, dance and all other ac- tivities relating to the entire Homecoming weekend. 4 3

1 2 1. Business office personnel Carolyn James, Oorothy Prough, and Mary Fritz work hard to keep records straight. Not just a place to give up money, the office disperses work checks, loans and grants to students. SSC's work-study program allows students to work 48 hours monthly to help pay college expenses. 2. Library renovation has added adequate study space, but a tape and record library is still needed. 3. SSC's band is small with about 70 members. Ken Peters, band director in his first year at Southeastern, stresses mu- sical quality rather than marching performance. Band Student Elaine Wills can testify to that. 4. A new landmark on campus is the Activities building located on the northeast corner above the foot- ball field. The building is equipped with facilities for many sports and can also be converted into a banquet room or dance floor. 3 4

1 1. Vet Village is finally being razed. Built in 1944 to provide housing for married students during the war years, these apartments have been remodeled several times but compared to modern facilities, have be- come an eyesore on campus. Now that adequate housing is available, they are being removed. Music is where it's happening these days. Nearly every dorm room is equipped with a radio and more than likely, these radios are tuned in on SSC's own radio station. 2. KHIB, operated by student DJ's like Scot Bucklin has become a success on campus. Getting publicity for col- lege events has been a problem, which the station has helped. 3. Dr. Stout, from Oklahoma University, was guest speaker at a Phi Alpha Theta welcome banquet held by the history fraternity for new members. 2 3
