Save the Freshmen Knock. Knock. Come in. Hello. I just wanted to let you know that there is a Club Fair going on at the Student Center, and you are invited to attend. Such was the scene in the dorms August 31 as students from the Stu¬ dent Presidents’ Association knocked on all the doors in the dorms to issue invitations to the Club Fair. Club Fair. What Club Fair? many asked. The Club Fair, directed by Maggie Miller, coordinator of Cam¬ pus Activities, was organized to help with the recruitment and retention of new freshmen. It has been reported that the first eight weeks of a semester determine whether a student decides to return to that school, Miller said. The Club Fair was one way of introducing the students to the clubs on campus and giving them some idea of what Sul Ross has to offer. The fair also helped to recognize the organizations that already exist and organize new clubs students were in¬ terested in starting. Lupita Asevedo, a member of the Student Association Student Senate, said, The Club Fair helped because it made students aware of the clubs that are here. It will also give incom¬ ing freshmen and upperclassmen a chance to become more active in school activities. Sister Carol McAdam of the New¬ man Club said, This is great. I didn’t realize there were so many clubs on campus. This will help stu¬ dents become more involved. Miller had been working on the Club Fair since April and said she had an excellent response from the clubs. A total of 25 groups signed up to have a table. I’m very pleased with the response. My personal goal was for about 15 organizations to sign up. Among the 25 clubs participating were the Newman Club, Computer Society, Baptist Student Union, Residence Hall Assistants, and Clip- n-Brand. After the fair, the Program Council showed the movie Blind Date. Miller said this was one in a series of movies that the Program Council showed every Wednesday in the Stu¬ dent Council. -Alma Dominguez This Is How It’s Done — Mike Cox demonstrates blacksmithing techniques at the Club Fair while Chris Marquart watches.
