Student involvement. Extracurricular activities Icept trie students busy outside of class. Friends are nnade withi people met in class, whiere ttiey work or where tiiey live, but many find nicties in tiie college community through membership in a club or organization with others who share the same interests. More than 60 groups are listed as registered stu- dent organizations on campus, and they focus on subjects ranging from finding dates by computer matching — The Missing Bytes and SAC — to serving the Lord through Bible study sessions in CLM. FCA. and Campus Ministry. The Wartburg Democrats reformed to promote the campaigns of two women candidates, and the Student Activites Committee provided several double features as part of the film series. A few clubs have been around since Wartburg moved to Waverly In 1935. Some traditional groups, such as College Republicans, have seen their pop- ularity wane. International Club and KWAR, on the other hand, returned to campus this year with renewed enthusiasm, drawing many more members and support. KWAR ' s future, however, was in the hands of the FCC as a result of the campus adminis- tration ' s decision to keep options open for the instal- lation of a cable television station. The license was renewed through 1 990. There is on on-going tradition which deserves mention. Clinton One South dispatches the God- father and his Mafia men to home Luther basketlxjil games. They enter the gym to the tune of Dragnet. When Wartburg plays at Luther. One South dribbles the ball to the game. In recent years, the floor has enlisted the aid of the cross country team. Dan Hus- ton set a new running record this year — 1 9.6 miles in 1 9 degree weather and in 1 0 inches of snow. 8
