Moving on campus Moving into a dorm is a major adjustment. Freshmen meet roommates for the first time, and upperclassmen find themselves abandoning unpacked boxes to search for old friends. Families are left behind to lug suitcases, boxes, furniture, carpet rolls and stacks of lumber for lofts. Dorm rooms are transformed into mini apartments with all the comforts of home. Perhaps not all the comforts of home. Privacy is rare, and noise levels are high. Bathrooms are shared with 20 to 30 floor members, as are important phone conversa- tions. All of these can be contributing factors to home- sickness. Adjustment to dorm life comes slowly but surely. Stu- dents stop running to their mailboxes more than once a day, and begin to resist the urge to roadtrip home. In a sense, Wartburg has become home.

We are the knights, and this is the story of our Knight Moves. ' We are Wartburg. The sentence is simple, and yet, says so much. It takes more than a few buildings to make a college. They are needed, but you also need professors, a hard-working staff, an administration and some very ener- getic students. We are all part of an intricate game plan. Pieces of a giant chess set where all the pieces are necessary in order to play. We have our assigned roles and know what our moves are. We here at Wartburg are the knights and we travel by knight moves. The pages of this book reflect the kinds of moves we knights experience at Wartburg. We move from the secur- ity of home to the uncertainty of a dorm room. Many of us move from one aca- demic department to another in order to discover what our major will be. While at Wartburg, we may choose to join an organization or an athletic club — each being a distinct group with actions or movements of its own. We meet people who become important in our lives and help us prepare for our final move at Wartburg College — the move away from the buildings, profes- sors, staff and administration who have become such a big part of our four years here. We are Wartburg. We are the knights, and this is the story of our Knight Moves. Above— Students share summer exper- iences at the picnic following opening convocation.
