ni ROLLING THE RED. Carrying on the fraternity tradition of his dorm, Dillonite Todd Kryzskowski rides on to compete in the chariot races of An Tostal. Hall Sweet Hall he signs pointed the way as you drove on campus with Mom and Dad that first fateful day of college. As you followed the arrows, your heart beat with fear and excited anticipation. Don ' t worry, your mother reassured you, The brochure says your hall has one of the best views of the lake. Finally, turning the last corner, your dorm which you had tried to visualize all summer suddenly became a reality. Whether greeted by a colorful banner saying Welcome Freshman Lyonites or an R.A., who offered to carry your suitcase up to Alumni ' s third floor, Domers that first memorable day dis- covered a new home. Not merely a building with beds to crash in and desks to pull all-nighters at, a dorm is a home and a community which shapes your social, academic and spir- itual life. From Dillon ' s reputa- tion as the only fraternity on campus to B. P. ' s legacy in football, each dorm boasts its own style. Throughout the year, various halls have their own special time in the limelight. Pop Farley is honored in a week of activities; Planner and Grace do battle during An Tostal in the Tower Wars; Fisher residents vie for the coveted Mr. Fisher title; Sorin ' s Talent Show livens up a home football weekend; Keenan daz- zles the Notre Dame community with its Revue and Howard Hall decks out for the annual Hat and Tie Party. Whether you ' re a Wild Woman from Walsh or a Hog from Holy Cross, these activities and others add to the spirit of hall and campus life. Packed with the belongings you ' ve accumulated over four years, your car slowly pulls out of the dorm parking lot. With friends waving their last goodbye, your mother reassures you, Don ' t worry, you ' ll see them again at the first football game. As you turn the last corner, the butterflies are back in your stomach a sign that you ' re leaving home again. W - Kathleen Coughlin - Mary Wall Hall Life 11

AN UPLOFTING EXPERIENCE. A sight that is all-too-familiar for most Corners, Jim Scheidler, Mike Hanahan and Gary Severyn become temporary carpenters in an effort to give their room a little more distinction. REALLY STACKED. Making beds becomes an interesting occupation for Kathy Ziemer, Susan O ' Sullivan, Laura Sizelove and Jennifer Sassano with their economic alternative to the traditional loft. ALL WASHED UP. A time and coin-consuming chore, Laura Bushyhead, freshman, performs that drudgery that most male Domers are able to avoid. 12 Homework
