2— Opening People, Places and Things Headline Campus Life People, places and things seemed to be the mainstay of campus life around Southeastern Oklahoma State University. New students headed to the book exchange to pick up all the decals, notebooks, bumperstick-: ers, pencils and goodies with ‘‘Southeastern’’ emblazoned in blue or gold. (Others snuck in quickly to get their school memo: rabilia.) Pictures and places went to- gether as students crowded in all available photography and photojournalism classes. Faculty and staff members became cam: era shy or ‘‘hollow eyed’’ as flashes flickered through the halls. ‘‘People collecting’’ became the fad as students made friends and renewed acquaintances dur- ing the first week of each semes- ter. Life settled down after enroll ment as everyone found a niche in Savage Society. Some folks tried the sports scene while others played with the Greeks. Others re- mained “independent” to mingle with everybody. SAY CHEESE savs Becky Brese as she “shoots’’ everyone within reach of her camera lens during the summer work: shops.

Spirit was returning to the dorm room or apartment for a good cry and a quick phone call back home fo just say “‘Hi, folks, | miss you.”’ Spirit was sticking with the foot: ball team through the hard times to find the reward of a winning season, and feeling a sense of pride in classmates for a job well done. Spirit was congratulating the losing team for giving their best and really meaning the spok- en word. Spirit was wondering when col lege would be fun only to discov: er that it was.
