WEEKLY Phone 884-2990 or 884-2991 comment The first week at school, Orientation week The week in which the Orientation Committee tries their hardest to orient even the most shy of the frosh to Wilfrid Laurier University; and the academics all try to convince poor unsuspecting souls to take their course, The entire week can be summed up in one word-FRUSTRATION. The first week was frustrating when I started, and I've seen three years of it since. No change in the past, not much hope of change in the future. From the word 'go| frustration begins. Those moving into residence •on Monday must endure long lines of equally-distraught individuals who are all trying to get their keys while praying that the little money they've saved over the summer will last the first onslaught of bills. Then, the procession of moving into each room begins. One soon realizes that they don't need those pots and pans that their mother had diligently packed to bring. But yes, the stereo would have been a good idea-the neighbour has theirs blaring. Or worse. The residence has been overbooked and the not-so-lucky straw says there are. several people who must share a lounge. And you could be one. Oh, well. Off-campus students have problems of their own. The "great" apartment that some friends found for you turns out to be one of the biggest wrecks that one might ever see in a lifetime. But of course, it had been in perfect shape only four months before. What happened? The rent is too high. The apartment is two miles away from school—not two blocks! The min-lecture trap where the prof tries to convince all the students that he's the best and so is his course can be deadly. Returning students keep saying that he's not the most loved prof in the school, even though he seems nice. Decisions to be Thanks to all who helped... made—what to do? Oh, well.

Some of the members were very well mannered and quiet, possibly too quiet, however, it is better to quietly consider a topic than to constantly critisize and hold up the meeting. It is the other few members who drag out the meeting with their eternal bickering and name calling. When the board members can't even co-operate long enough to pass the minutes of the last meeting, and instead table themyou have to wonder how they would handle themselves on serious issues. When the Student Publications budget was presented to be approved and it was discovered that there were two budgets, one which WLUSU said was correct and the one Student Publications was presenting, they couldn't decide what to do. When it was put to a vote three voted to table the budget, three voted against tabling, and seven members abstained. When there was two budgets and no one sure which one was correct what else could they do. When eight people refrain from voting on an issue as clear cut as this it makes you wonder why. Do the people not care? Were they not paying attention and therefore didn't have, the information necessary to vote? Or could they really.not make up their minds? Another case in point is the current negotiations on the. Operations procedure Agreement When the document was presented to the Board the President was accused of attempting to bypass the Board. The document had already been presented once and was again presented Monday night, a funny way of bypassing the Board. Maybe everyone would be better off if all the Board members remember that they are there to represent the students and not just their own interests.

Orientation started on time with the munching of cheese and the drinking of wine. All the ice-breakers were around, we could see, selling T-shirts and lemonade, and finally iced tea.

Lots turned out at Ponderosa for steak and in the dance contest they did partake, At WLUSU Open House, we saw more of the same, but most for the coffee and donuts came. ) The pub has been filled everynight before nine, And eating with chopsticks was a good time. The street dance was cancelled due to the rain, and after the pub crawl many frosh suffered pain.

Room IEI has had movies galore, And the dunking machine was less than a bore, Students turned out to toss a ball, and into the water their peers did fall.

So far so good, but the concert is next, We're looking fo.r one that'll surpass the rest. Frosh are now oriented into university life drinking and dancing and the usual strife. — The Cord Weekly Thursday, September 15, 1977 10
