1986-1987 Yearbook

Puke Green Paint S an Francisco has the Golden Gate Bridge, New York has the Empire State building and Harding has its bell tower, white swings and puke green paint. The bell tower and swings will be forever ingrained in our memories of Harding, as they have become symbols of our alma mater. They were just as much a part of this school as passionate kisses were in front of Cathcart. But some of us remembered the little things about Harding that other students overlooked. For instance, the paint in the laundry mat or the guts of the American Studies building. Ever noticed the fluorescent lime paint radiating from .the walls. Most students referred to it as puke green, due to the revolting feeling it causes. You would expect to see that color on the hairstyles of Twisted Sister. While many remembered the beautiful grounds, who could forget the web of sidewalks which led to the Administration Building. By the way, aren't those multi-level sidewalks a trip? Stories could be told to grandkids about the watering procedures at Harding. I, on the other hand, will always remember watching the leaves fall, only to be mulched by a lawn mower. Maybe it's just me, but it strikes me funny to watch people mow leaves instead of grass. What about the sometimes silent movies shown in the Benson, or the nightly migration to Wendys? How everyone, in chapel, has always wanted to say,"you're dismissed:' The lilypool forever absent of a devotional. These were the little things I remembered about Harding. After all it's the "little things" that make us say, "oh yeah, I remember that:' These became characteristics of Harding that made it what it is. Just like when you go back home and see the dent in the wall that you knocked in as a kid, or that familiar creaking sound, in the hallway, that says, "welcome home:' That puke green paint will continue to make us ill and tree leaves will always be mowed. And come spring time, the lilypool, after weeks of not being cleaned, will invite science majors to gather bacteria samples. And that's fine with me, because when I come back to visit, those '1ittle things" will be here to welcome me back home.<];> - David Rector Karen Lee Ward - Searcy, AR. Office sy tems.
