Moving In - A Fresh Start There are times in everyone ' s lives that they will always remember: graduation, marriage, the birth of their first child, and moving into the dorm. Moving into the dorm is probably one of the most trying experiences in the lives of most students. The Freshman Year is probably the most difficult of all. Remember waiting in anticipation for your roommate to arrive, sitting with all of your boxes and bare walls until the myterious person finally appeared? The fear and anxiety concerning roommates is erased with their arrival, but then the real adventure begins. Your room is cluttered with five million boxes. You have two popcorn poppers and no stereo, and you left your favorite Panda Bear at home 2,000 miles away. Not only do you have unpacking to deal with, but the Freshman Orientation Committee expects you to attend all 35 events and attempt to meet every other Freshman on campus. It was a great way to meet people, and the events, for the most part, were very fun. Too bad, during the times you were out meeting everyone, the boxes weren ' t unpacking themselves. But five days later there are only three boxes left to unpack, and you traded the extra popcorn popper for a fan (a definite neccessity to fight the August heat). - JoAnn Chavez

Falling Into Autumn Fun As the colors of fall emerge and the campus grounds become covered with leaves, life at Notre Dame is filled with activity. From the moments our suitcases are unpacked, our lofts up, and friendships renewed, we begin to partake in the events of fall. Football season is foremost in the minds of many students as they remember fall at Notre Dame. The tailgaters which filled the time before and after games give the students and alumni a chance to get acquainted. The dedicated fans which endured all four quarters of those cold, wet games congratulate themselves for their dedication and spirit. Somehow in looking back we see that each season has special memories. Also during this colorful time, the students clothe themselves in all sorts of wild and crazy costumes as they head to Senior Bar for the annual Halloween Party. Some students prefer to trick-or-treat dorm to dorm, while others celebrate in their rooms. Halloween is always a festive time for the students. As the temperature cools and winter approaches, many students remain on campus for the Thanksgiving break. The Notre Dame food service provides the students with a home-cooked dinner, and the ice sculptures on the campus make that four day break interesting. When the leaves have all fallen and the snow arrives, wc say goodbye to this colorful season. The events during this fall at Notre Dame were exciting. In looking back, we realize that this is a special season for all who walk through the leaves under the Golden Dome. — Kim Roerig
