l-Mll jpirit ofjouth (mad adin How can one describe a dorm as unique and full of character as Badin? The women of Badin seem to in- habit their little world by the bookstore happily and quietly; not a lot of people can pigeon- hole this dorm. But we tend to feel there is strength in our ob- scurity. As a dorm we are unique because of the strong streak of individualityfos- tered by many single rooms-- inherent in each Badinite. Badin encourages and fosters the talents of the individual in- stead of inhibiting them. In a word, Badin is indescribable. - Katlyn Hosker ' oily Mizelle and James Taliaferro take a camera break from slow-dancing during the Badin SYR. 26 STUDENT LIFE : y f f : . ick Campanella acts out a marriage proposal to a disdainful Moira McGee during the Badin SYR. s David Berestka looks on, Matt Mergen and Kevin Kettler demonstrate their flexibility during the Dillon SYR.

The spirit of its residents, the proud reputation of the dorm, and its strategic location sur- rounded by men ' s dorms all make it an attractive home. And it ' s activities make it all the better: the annual Lyons Volleyball Tournament and picnic to kick off the year, Cream Your Favorite Lyonite , tutoring at St. Hedgwig ' s, and Thursday Movie Nites in the Lyons ' Lair. - Maureen Nelligan - Trish Stager Howardite takes advan- tage of the rare opportunity to sleep in, despite a camera flash. t ' s difficult to keep in touch, but Lyonite Meg Hobday writes a late night letter just to say, Hi! 33 5l custom-made carpet is the pride of Mike Norman, Kevin Gopon, and Jason Carroll; just don ' t lie, walk, or stand on the letters!

r Ptolemy was wrong. Copernicus was wrong. Fa- ther George was right! Alumni Hall is the center of the uni- verse! To truly understand this astronomical conundrum, one must first understand the inhabitants of the hall. The Dawgs of Alumni know the key to survival at Notre Dame. Over a Dawg ' s years in Alumni he experiences life in SW Al- ley, the Irish Wake, and hope- fully some of Fr. George ' s eggnog. And when he is fi- nally preparing for graduation, he can look back with satisfac- tion and say, I ' m a Dawg! - Jim Blum illon Shortly after arriving on campus as a freshman, every Notre Dame student is intro- duced to Dillon Hall. The women are promptly warned to stay away from this fine fraternal organization a warning which is soon coun- tered by the enthusiasm of the more experienced women on campus. The boys (not to be confused with Dillon men) are told to despise the place a feeling which generally inten- sifies over the years. From its humble surroundings (between the dining hall and Alumni), the Dillon spirit can be felt throughout the campus. - Peter Deegan .
