The nation was saddened by the deaths of such celebrities as Liberace, James Cagney, Cary Grant, Danny Kaye and Andy Warhol. But there were good times, too. People spent their free time having fun in new and unusual Ways, including cycling, rock climbing, skateboarding and playing frisbee. The Cosby Show was the highest-rated show on television, with Family Ties and Moon- lighting close behind. Some of the most popular movies at the box office were Top Gun, Pla- toon, Star Trek IV and Crocodile Dundee. All of these exposed students to the World outside WKU. Through this exposure, exper- iences were gained and emotions were tested. But through it all, life went 071. pg ff! Q. ., x U lin 2 V wiflffiw ' ., .. - T libs ii- , i ' A fi- ' C' Ana' I' -, .
