It ' s the second night of the convention and these demon- strators are cheering the placing of Gerald Ford ' s name for nomination. Kim Rellick, Debbie Quinn, the Pink Panther, and Ka- ren Gallo preside over the Alpha Gamma Delta home- coming float. One thing no one could say about West- minster students was that they weren ' t aware of national politics. While few gave much thought to the Mock Convention as suitcases were unpacked in September, publicity and enthusiasm rose to a height and all too soon March and the conven- tion were over. With the theme of The Great Campaign we ' ll take you through the Events sec- tion and cover the year before, during and after the convention. Platforms offers the opportunity to explore the different disciplines students chose to follow as well as the faculty who taught them. Ath- letic Rallies aroused action and spirit for all to enjoy. At the same time, Dele- gations gave students the opportunity to involve themselves in projects or social activities on a group basis. And, in the final section of the 1980 ARGO, we catch a final glimpse of the Candidates for bachelor ' s degrees. All in all, it was an unforgettable year of learning, growing and having fun. It was a year of getting to know those around you and for taking advantage of the best of opportunities that only come once in a life-time. Relive it and capture the feeling one more time. Groups such as the clown ministry, here shown at their fall workshop, enjoy themselves as they give service to others. -. . Potts Perhaps the most familiar landmark on campus. Old Main is visible from all angles through the fall foliage -J Miller

EVENTS . . . both domestic and international determined the issues raised and dis- cussed at national and mock conventions. More local events, large and small, shaped the memories of those good ole college days. The trauma of a freshman ' s first col- lege exam and the subsequent party to celebrate its success or failure; a shopping trip uptown ' with a friend; attending the Little River Band concert amidst funny smelling smoke; seeing Maynard Fergu- son and the parade of floats on Home- coming weekend; being a delegate to the Mock Convention; spending a winter month in a foreign country; and with the coming of spring, celebrating Greek Week. All of these were special things that could only be brought to mind when thinking of college life.
