ORIENT A TION WEEK

gives the first impression of college life

The strange newness of arriving on campus. . . the fear of

moving into a dorm . . . and the homesickness were

overcome at least in part for the freshmen by the orientation

activities during that first week (September 6-10) before

classes started. Getting to know each other and giving

testimonies on Wednesday night, playing such memorable

games as Shmoo and Aardvark on Thursday night, being able

to rejoice in song at the beach on Friday night, and a wild

bowling game or two on Saturday night left little time for

worry in spite of the never-ending placement tests taken

during the afternoons.

Registration, on September 1 1, was more or less dreaded by

everyone, but we were all relieved to find that Dr. Godwin

had made effective changes in that area. Almost everything

ran smoothly. There was only a slight hitch in the plans,

causing some students to have to wait just a little while outside

the business office . . .
