.7-iff ,P- -1-!1 --f ntervols ore those things which provide o welcome breols from the normol everydoy routine. At Williom Jewell Col- lege, there ore these such inter- vols thot provide much pride ond dedicotion to the compus. When Opening Convocotion is underwoy, the school yeor hos officiolly begun. Homecoming comes ond the compus wide school spirit engulfs everyone in- volved ond even those thot oren't. The Foll Ploy held in Peters Theoter gives everyone on opportunity to see the dromotic floir in our friends ond peers. But, the event thot sweeps up most of the compus is Totler Revue. Held in Gono, it is the source for mony hours of long proctices ond o lot of fun. Once the revue is complete, the Spring Ploy comes ond once ogoin we ore entertoined. It is these events thot come ot welcomed times throughout the yeor. Homeconing gives the students ot Williom Jewell o chonce to work together ond compete ogoinst one onother. These events bring o sense of pride os well os o sense of excite- ment to Williom Jewell College ond Liberty, os well. Opening Convocotion is the time when oll of Williom Jewell's closs come in full style. With the presentotion of the Yote's Medollions to the distinguished guests of the doy Williom Jewell is thrust into the spotlight. This yeor though, there wos o speciol event thot tools ploce on compus. Former President Jimmy Cotter poid Williom Jewell on honored visit. Achievement Doy gove the school o chonce to honor those who hod succeeded. It is these events thot ollow the students, the foculty, the od- ministrotion ond the community o chonce to get involved in whot the school is occomplishing. These events, just intervols in the col- lege experience, hoppen to foll ot the right time. f y ,yy Z l i 16 f Events

With yellow ribbons ond Americon flogs very much in evidence, one knew this yeor wos no ordinory opening Convocotion. Certoinly mony of the moin chorocters remoin- ed the some. The foculty wore their ocodemic regolio. Dr. Kingsley spoke. Yotes Medollions were presented. Whot set Opening Convocotion 1985 oport from oll others? The story reolly begon in June when o TWA flight wos hUocked to Beirut, Lebonon, bringing Americo's collec- tive ottention to the hostoge situotion once ogoin. John Testroke, o Richmond notive, piloted the TWA flight ond proved to be o strong leoder ot o time when lesser men would hove been content to merely go with the flow. But Beirut ond Liberty ore foirly distont from eoch other? Why the connection? Why the yellow ribbons remembering the Americons still held coptive overseos? Why the red, white, ond blue flogs woving goily during the ceremony which officiolly begon the 1985-86 ocodemic yeor? The link lies in the person of Coptoin Testroke. Presented with the other honorees, Testroke wos evidence of the vic- tory thot communicotion, understonding ond proyer con hove over oll thot is frightening in the world. Agoin, os in other yeors, Dr. Kingsley set the tone for the yeor in his opening messoge. Inch by inch become com- mon words on compus os students ond foculty olike strove to reoch the stondords set by Williom Jewell. We were helped olong the woy by the red Leorning L's reminding us we ore oll in it together. y - Beth Spicer T 4 , i : i 1 i T i t .
