 Tennis shoes? Check. Money? Check. Map? Check. Bus schedule? Bus schedule?! What do I need a bus schedule for? Ohhhh. Now I see. O.K. Bus schedule? Check. The day couldn't have been nicer. 65 degrees and sunny must be the perfect weather for a walk. A very long walk. For those who did walk the fifteen mile route, the weather made what could have been a miserable time into a great one. The occasion was the third annual Walk for Ignatius held on September 29. Over 1100 students and faculty members literally were footing the bill for extracurricular that day. With a route that covered most of Madison Avenue and a large portion of Clifton Boulevard, the walkers were treated to a view of Cleveland's and Lakewood's commercial and residential areas. Unfortunately, not all of the students were able to walk. The football players manned the stations. Other students used various means of transportation to complete the required mileage. While most students took at least three hours to finish, some miraculously finished in less than two hours. Overall, nearly $40,000 was raised by this event. For the first time, a hot dog and coke picnic followed on the new mall. Next year. Mr. Kevin Gladstone says, We'll try something different. Maybe a garbage pick up.

The date was October 21, 1978. The time was 8:00 p.m. The place was the Student Center. The event was the 1978 Homecoming Dance. The result was over 190 couples having a superb time. The theme of the dance “was Roman Holiday and upon entering a sense of ancient Rome prevailed. Whether it was the Roman garden, the workers in togas, the Temple of the Gods or the chariot complete with horse and driver, one felt he had been transported to Rome for a night. The couples danced to the music of Salem Witchcraft, a popular band from the Detroit area. The Homecoming Committee of Bob Beletic, Bob LaGanke, Mike Wolfe and Mike Hudec put in hours of hard work which resulted in a generally splendid evening.
