The largest freshman class had just begun the Orientation process. The week was full of excitement, doubt, fear, and of course, rain. With the help of 157 coordina- tors and an enthusiastic freshman class, Ori- entation ' 91 was a huge success. On August 29, 1987, 1700 freshmen and their parents arrived at Tulane ' s campus only to find that no one could have prepared them for the chaos that they were encountering. The line for the Monroe building extended out to the traffic packed McAlister Drive and new students were contemplating whether or not the Marriot food service was worth the one and a half hour wait. Orientation coordinators frantically passed out maps and instructions to neurotic parents. As the first day progressed, the question of the day became Is college worth all of this trouble? Orientation planners had been working on the itinerary for Orientation week for almost a year to make sure that it would be a com- plete success. Among the many activities planned were a tour of campus, a trip to the zoo, and a riverboat party. Orientation lead- ers did their best to show new students a great time in New Orleans before the aca- demics began. There were 157 orientation groups which ranged in size from eight to fifteen students. Eacn group consisted of students not only Orientation coordinators play their part by serv- ing drinks at the outdoor picnic for incoming freshmen. The weather was humid, but the event was a success nonetheless. from the United States but from many other countries as well: Canada, Panama, Japan, and Germany among the represented coun- tries. Eight additional orientation groups were set up for transfer students. The direc- tors felt that having their own groups would make the transfer students ' adjustment much easier. The choosing of orientation coordinators was a long involved process. During the spring semester of 1987 all interested stu- dents filled out applications which were then viewed by the orientation directors. A seminar was held in which volunteer stu- dents divided into groups of ten and began participating in get-acquainted activities. Directors observed how they interacted with other students. The 157 coordinators were then chosen based on their enthusiasm and interest in Tulane. The year at its end, many freshmen look back and cannot believe how nervous they were during the first few weeks of school. The major question asked is no longer When can I go home? but, Where can I go Thursday night? One can honestly say what a great year it has been, • — Julie Buchwald
