Approximately 450 new and transfer students were welcomed to UNC-A this Fall with a week of non-stop activity. The dorms opened on Saturday, August 20, and the mass migration of freshmen began . . . Joe Average Freshman arrives in a car bulging with college survival equipment — tennis racket, fish tank, two complete wardrobes, 1500 watt hair dryer, stereo equipment, and a 5 x 7 of the sweetie back home. In Vance Hall, Joe finds his room key and friendly people and doughnuts. With no time to unpack, he stumbles to a place called Lipinsky for the welcom- ing lecture, campus tour, and hundreds of names and faces that blurr before his bloodshot eyes. Cookouts and games on the soccer field and pretty girls with summer tans keep his head spinning. Finally, with a coffeehouse performance and drink- ing too much beer, Joe has survived UNC-A ' s orien- tation (initiation?) week.

Loud music, telephone calls in ' the night, and cinderblock cubbyholes comprise the dormitory scene at UNC-A. Posters, improvised furniture, bicycles and tennis rackets are jammed under beds and onto the walls and doors, reflecting the diverse personalities of the occupants. Beer and game parties, concerts, and other social events arranged by the Inter-dorm Social Commissioner provide opportunities for the approximately 250 dormitory residents to get acquainted. There are vending machines, a ping-pong table, a color television, mailboxes, and games in Vance Hall, the center of activity for the eight residence halls. Mary Gilpin (left), the dorm proctors, and the security guards are usually available to solve problems and to dispense advise. Dorm life is sometimes boring and sometimes fun, but definitely an experience.
