august Classes begin, serving as a painful reminder that despite the heat, summer is at an end. Summer recreation is far from over however, and the continued shortage of parking spaces on campus, coupled with the ever increasing emphasis on staying in shape has led many students to abandon their cars in favor of more entertaining modes of transportation.

august This year ' s freshman class will graduate in 1984. Although the date conjures up visions of Big Brother presiding over commencement, the class does not appear to be too terribly futuristic. Secure under the protective wings of orientation leaders, the freshmen settle in, getting to know each other. Seniors preside over the campus in detached amusement, fondly remembering their first year and wondering how the time passed so quickly. The distinction between the classes fades rapidly, and by the first TGIF, the student body is united in anticipation of the upcoming year.

September Ouring Sorority Rush 80, the Newcomb freshmen visit each house and are warmly greeted with songs of welcome, sisterhood,and, of warning. God help the mister who gets between me and my sister, and God help the sister who gets between me and my man! The guys offer their own ratings of the freshmen girls. Rush proceeds quite respectably until Screech Night, when the chief concern of the upstanding young ladies of Newcomb is to get as drunk and as rowdy as possible. By the end of Rush, forty percent of the freshman class have joined the Greeks and vowed their allegiance to brotherhood, sisterhood, and the pursuit of a good party.
