Volunteers attend an orientation program before beginning any recruiting efforts and are continually updated about UT developments and happenings. Students with above average ACT and SAT scores, a high grade point average and involvement in many school and community groups and activities are brought to the attention of the alumni volunteers.

Thousands of people sat freezing their unmentionables to metal while watching the V015 play a team Who looked like the only thing they cared about was getting a chance to travel. It was one of those kinds of games that make you swear youhll never go sit at a football game played during any winter month again. So we counted our blessings when R.E.M., the god of college and alternative bands, decided to open its national Work tour at Stoker Athletics Center after the release of their latest, Document. The band wiped away any thoughts of coldness with its serenade to a standing, crushed-together, gyrating au- dience of fools-for-music. A little more on the conservative side, the MBA Symposium featured former Transportation Secretary Elizabeth Dole, who spoke about her husband's cam- paign, opportunities for women and de-regulation. Torchnight assumed its usual occurrence, as did Alcohol Awareness Week, and UT tradition continued to be tradition. -by Carol Owen While the Vols worked their magic on the California Bears, tand by the way, the V015 won 38-12i, Elizabeth Dole sounded the Vir- tues of husband Bob, Rokelle Lerner educated listeners during Alcohol Awareness week about the plight of the Children of alcoholics, Amadou Sal! gave out information on African Week, and the Clarence Brown Company entertained audiences at the Clarence Brown and Carousel theatres. Whew! What an October!
