TRA N N THE ROOKIE ' by Chmstme Spencer Z' mid the confusion and .I . A! Q4 .2 4 g. Visit 1 .W-if-' v Eric Fischer chaos, the sounds of slamming car doors and beeping horns are heard as a new load of troops arrive to do battle with college at SCU. What a zoo! says one, lost youth. Everyone is trying to unload their junk at the same time. Hunk? exclaims one helping hunk with a white shirt and green name button. I've never seen so many fancy appliances in my life. It'sjust my luck,', says another enthusiastic OA. I always seem to be moving people in on the top floor of Swigf' Helping hands reach for every package and piece of luggage emerging from the variety of vehicles lined up in front of the dorms. The freshmen, some looking forlorn, others appearing excited, try to get their bearings. Can I help you? asks yet another smiling lifesaver. Which way do I go? wails the freshman. Yes, it will be a long day. The next day dawns and the freshman arrivals are in a stage of uncertainty. I feel like I'm hanging in limbo! And I want to know what happens next. The OAs listen and laugh to themselves. The freshmen are stressed out! Relax! Tryk to get involved in what you really enjoy and meet lots of people. Sounds good, the freshmen reply. But how? The Candlelight Dinner and Dance seems to be the perfect answer. Or is it? The shy freshman women line up on one side, men on the other. Something has to be done. The OAS yell Loosen up! and the wild dancing begins. It's really fun,', says one swinging young lady. I can feel the energy. The freshmen men are even better looking when dressed up, remarks another enthusiastic dancer. Yes, the Candlelight extravaganza is a success, but it's only the beginning. Two days later many freshmen feel the end of the fun has come. Registration?! Yuk! one freshman responds. You mean I start classes tomorrow? My mind will never be in gear! exclaims another member of the disheartened troop. Yes, the entertaining orientation is almost over and the battle with classes will soon be starting. Freshmen are on their own. The OAS leave with a few friendly words: Take things as they come, and always remember why you are here. 'ilt is exciting, but scary, says one freshman. Sounds like funf' says another new arrival. But when is vacation? Yes, the freshmen have arrived. Training the Rookies
