Alums Show Renewed Interest Homecoming 1983 was special, not only because of the events that took place, but also because of the people who returned to see how things were at their alma mater. Although the campus had undergone many changes since most of the visitors were students, according to Jan Striepe, director of alumni relations, the increased number of alumni who participated in Homecoming festivities was a healthy sign of growing interest in the Wartburg community. Apparently the changes did little to dampen the spirits of those who returned. A recent graduate commented that Home- coming at Wartburg meant returning to a place that he considered home, and the sentiment was echoed by many others who congregated on campus for the weekend. Despite rain and low temperatures, the weekend ' s activities went on as sched- uled. From the Friday night performance of Kastle Kapers to the Sunday afternoon con- cert, events were consistently well-attended. The traditional parade drew a sizable crowd, as the faculty staff float with the theme, tip a canoe and peacocks too, took first prize honors. With some booths inside and some out- side, the Renaissance Faire also drew a crowd. Reunions and other alumni-oriented events were also sprinkled throughout the weekend, but there was plenty of time for alums to spend time with present students. Perhaps the attitude of President Vogel at the pep assembly infiltrated all of those proud to be known as the Wartburg Knights. Our first priority is people. And Homecoming 1983 certainly was for people, no matter when Wartburg was their home.
