H OMECOMING T A BARK OF DISTINCTION • Karen Webster • • Young-Sun Yun • Bulldogs V. Indians. Fran- co-Georgia Day. Crowning of Miss Homecoming. Super- dance. Skits. Window Paint- ing. Banner Competition. Concert. Parade. These are the major events that made Homecoming week ' 88 the festive yet hectic week that it was. The All-Campus Home- coming Committee (ACHC) scheduled these events that led up to the climatic day of the Homecoming football game between the William and Mary Indians and our Georgia Bull-dogs. This year ' s homecoming theme was A Bark of Dis- tinction. From October 21 thru October 29, students took time from studying for midterm exams to paint win- dows, decorate banners, build floats, and bake cakes. Why all this hard work? The answer — to have a time and to try to win awards, of course. The three divisions that participated in Superdance, skits, window painting, banner competi- tion, cake bake-off, and the float competition were: Athena League, clubs and or- ganizations; Classic League, social fraternities and soror- ities; and, Olympic League, residence halls. The Homecoming spirit was first ignited by Super- dance which raised $10,000 for the Muscular Dystrophy Association. Representatives from all three divisions danced until 6:00 PM until 6:00 AM (or until their legs gave out) to raise money for MDA. Tonya Black, a Pre Med major and Superdance chairperson said, the Super- dance went as planned and was the most successful dance ever. Speaking of dancing, stu- dents had the opportunity to go Dancin ' in the Streets, actually in Legion Field, to the music of Drivin ' n ' Cryin ' and their opening act, the Barking Tribes. Despite the gloomy, rainy weather, about 3000 students crowded into Legion field to take a study break and hear the rockin ' music of Drivin ' n ' Cryin ' . David Stembridge, a senior anthropology major, said, It was a hip concert! The Homecoming parade was another highlight of Homecoming. The parade started on Foundry Street and ended at the Physics Building. Not only did the clubs, greeks, and residence halls participate in the pa- rade, but so did President and Mrs. Charles Knapp, the Redcoat Marching Band, the Homecoming court, and many others.

Many exciting events take place on the Tate Student Center Plaza. In Summer Quarter 1988, Jack White demonstrat- ed pool strategies to passers-by. Being dropped off or picked up by friends along Baldwin Street, the busi- est street on campus, complicates the heavy pedestrian traffic flow. raditions have been in transition in two halves of UGA campus life: both academic and social. The ever-in- creasing student pop- ulation has been the largest contributing factor to changes in student life. On the academic level, computers have greatly changed tradi- tional ways of writing term papers and tak- ing tests. Our new student government was able to extend li- brary lounge hours. Since classes usually are nerve racking, many students found the Tate Center to be a relaxing place to meet friends, to catch a movie, or to be en- tertained on the Pla- za. On the social level, the new policy that prohibited outdoor parties did not deter students from enjoy- ing nightlife as much as possible. In fact, the popularity of pri- vate parties and nightclubs such as T.K. ' s and 40 Watt has increased. With classes, study- ing, relaxing, and par- tying, students hardly ever had time to be bored! That ' s why campus life is still the traditionally once-in- a-lifetime Athens ex- perience that only UGA can offer! ir CAMPUS LIFE DIVISION 9
