New Faces Brings A Wave Of Fresh Changes Yoke, as well as many other students, realized the importance of getting in volved. Here she gives a helping hand in the theatre box office. Throughout history, an un- usual species has appeared and made waves in our calm ocean here at Union Universi- ty. This year with little change, the trend continued with an invasion of another record breaking class of Freshmen. What ' s the typical freshman like? LOST? CONFUSED? When upperclassmen were asked what they thought about freshmen, they respond- ed with typical answers such as: naive, young, over- whelmed, and impressionable. They tended to see freshmen as first year students who are generally unsure of them- selves and inexperienced. To them, freshmen can always be spotted because they never know where they are going. They tend to hang around in small groups, afraid to venture out. Freshmen, on the other hand, don t see themselves in the sterotype. Most looked to their first year of college with anticipation. Going to a new school in a new town with a lot of different people was ex- citing for most. Although freshmen do get lost quite a bit. after a few weeks they all get the hang of it. Let ' s not forget — freshmen eventually become sopho- mores. Freshmen were not the only new faces around our campus. Many transfers from such schools as MTSU decided to make our campus their next home. New faces also appeared in our faculty. Improvements were seen in many depart- ments with addition of: Mrs. Andrea Anderson and Dr. Sam Myatt — Business. Mrs. Betty Hughes — Chemistry. Mrs. Jean Marie Walls — Lan- guages. Mrs. Lillian Baggett — English. Dr. John Meadows and Dr. Joe Blair — Religion, Dr. Wayne Wofford — Biolo- gy. Coach Bob Ward — P.E., and Dr. James Edwards — Vice-President. The excitement at Union, along with its pride, increased with each new face. We would like to welcome each of our new members with a hearty — GOOD LUCK!

Olt WlutA Yml Dr. Edmonson takes time to talk over a test result with senior, kristen Miller. Talk- ing over results and learning from your mistakes is part of the academic progress of a student. Small classes help in the one-on-one attention a student receives. Such is the case in most of Union ' s foreign language classes. Dr. Jayne teaches the im- portance of being bilingual and the cultures of for- eign countries.
