Complaints were voiced about the noise level, which interfered with a seminar in progress on the 11th floor of the Healey library.

Diane Fabiano and Anthony lmperioso, of the Student Events and Organizations Committee, were the key organizers of the Back to School Bash, and deserve a lot of credit for their efforts. At a University at which it is extremely diffi- cult to bring a large number of students to any type of event, the organizers did a first rate job. 1 i iw , -Q 'M' ,U 5,2 ,ii 6, .
