ORIENTATION i whole new experience The orientation staff was really helpful. Without them, I would have been lost at registration. - Kurt Meredith New students. Whether they were incoming freshmen, international or non-traditional students, most were unfa¬ miliar with the University. Some had questions about campus life, while others wondered what major to choose. They needed direction, something to start them off on the right foot. That something was orientation. Orientation began during the spring semester with the selection of orientation leaders. Aside from living on cam¬ pus and answering questions all summer, the leaders saw orientation as a unique and rewarding experience. Since the orientation leaders made such an impact on me my freshman year, I wanted to do the same for incoming students and make a difference in their year, junior Stacy Bingham said. Students arrived anxious about their first college expe¬ rience. While some came alone, many were accompanied by parents, hoping to ease the transition. The two-day experience included campus tours, various workshops on topics like drug abu se, study habits and registering for fall classes. The orientation staff was really helpful. Without them, I would have been lost at registration, freshman Kurt Meredith said. International student orientation was an entirely differ¬ ent experience. To help students from other countries become more familiar with the customs of the United States, workshops were given on campus safety, opening a checking account and using the computer lab. Orientation was really helpful with my move to school. I came alone and ended up meeting lots of people who live in my dorm, freshman Johnny Mendoza said. Preparing for international orientation may have taken more time than preparing for the regular orientation, but the orientation leaders of the international sessions did not mind. It was so much fun meeting students my age from other countries, senior Melissa Garrett said. If I hadn ' t taken part in orientation, I would never have met so many different people. - Alayna Gilliam 24

He was a little behind in math, which was needed for him to pursue his degree in mechanical engineering, and was tutored by professor Davis Richardson. During his senior year, Holloway had a campus interview with NASA and was offered a position. NOW Holloway has continued working for NASA since 1963. He has been director of the Phase One Program, which included a series of Shuttle- Mir docking missions leading to the development of the International Space Station Alpha. He is currently the manager of Space Shuttle Programs. He man¬ ages more than 20,000 people and handles a budget of more than $13 billion, with half going for the human space flight program. 23 SENIOR PROJECTS
