Noel News Is Good News The Christmas season was a time of much celebration, fun, laughter and good times. Parties proliferated on the campus; in each of the different departments, in the cafeteria, on the dorm floors, and in the fraternities. No matter who you were, you could not avoid receiving an invitation to at least one of these social functions. Secret Santa became a popu¬ lar anonymity, as students found surprises in their mailboxes, or waiting for them in their rooms, always signed by none other than the famous “S. S. ” The campus took on a new look; especially the dreary dormitory halls, as each of us, with limited budgets and time, decorat¬ ed our living quarters. Alden Hall was twice transformed into a magical Christmas king¬ dom, on the nights of the sorority Christmas parties. Fraternities also spread the Christ¬ mas spirit by trimming trees and holding fes¬ tive bashes. The bells of the Carillon reminded us throughout the despised “last week of the term” that Christmas was approaching. Al¬ though swamped by the work of that last week, each of us made time to ring in the Christmas season with lots of good cheer. Surely, many happy memories remain from those last weeks of B-term.
