Starting Off The New Year Right. Moving, Mixing And Masking Moving In As the long, hazy, crazy days of summer come to a close and the first of September creeps in, the anticipation of moving back to school slowly enters one ' s mind. It ' s the occasional thought, that eventually grows into the major chore of packing boxes, cartons, and luggage to fit into the trunk of a compact car. After loading the car(s), trailor(s), and u-haul(s), it is a race to see who can arrive first in order to achieve the best parking spaces for unloading the car. Then begins the ma|or chore of creating a place that will be called home out of a cement-walled dormitory. by Sandra Stapleton Bang! Bang! Bang! Alright everyone, groups of three. Hurry! The old pan game struck again at the annual mixer held on Tuesday, September 9th, in the Apple dining room. Freshmen and transfer students were invited to attend the social sponsored by the SGA to help break the ice. There was a time for embarrassment and laughter during the evening with the first awards banquet for the freshman class. Some of the awards given were: Ned Nazarene, Scott Knight; Nancy Nazarene, Melanie Belew; Campers of the week, Stacey Bontrager and Ruthann Ring; and Most likely to get a cafeteria scholarship, John Sparks.

Rat Days Air Raid. Rats were seen dropping to the ground with their backs shooting into the air. Rat masters — as the sophomore big brothers and sisters were called — had their rats doing all sorts of embarrassing tasks like waiting in the cafeteria line and serving food to the masters, dressing funny, and singing to everyone in the cafeteria. This Freshman Inaugural Day (Rat Day) sponsored by the sophomore class continued the traditions. The fun overcame the embarrassment and the goal — freshmen becoming closer to the upperclassmen was achieved after a long night and day. The freshmen went back to their normal selves that evening and Toby Williams spoke at the communion service for the classes during a special time of bonding. by Melanie Belew Mike Gonyea and David Hess listen carefully to game instructions during the freshman mixer.
