Show Before most of the University students were fully aware that another school year was upon them, fifteen hundred Freshman men and women gathered on campus to participate in the Freshman Week activities. Sprinkled among the beanie-clad Freshmen were nearly two-hundred Spurs, Cwean, IKs, Vigilantes, and other upperclassmen acting as advisors and sponsors for the Frosh. Headed by Gayle Baddley, the Freshman Week committee planned activities which gave the new students an opportunity to get well acquainted with the campus and many of the "U" traditions. With assemblies and acquainted them with the administrators and student-body officers, the Mortar Board-AWS fashion show, the faculty-frosh lunch, open houses, and the traditional whitewashing of the U, the Class of 1960 was kept going all week. Climax of the week was the annual Freshman Week Dance at the Old Union Building, where lovely Queen Jane Parrish and her attendants, Denese Derrick and Janie Pitman, were presented to a crowd of nearly seven hundred. Taking time for a refreshing lunch found these frosh lovelies talking over everything that was new and fun during their week. 52 |
