Forever friends, fun and togetherness are just a few characteristics that describe Shantih Social Club. Wherever they went and whatever they did, Shan-- tih always had fun. They were all club sisters, as well as sisters in Christ. The spring semester started with the Orange Crush party with the theme "I've Got a Crush on You." Before they knew it spring banquet arrived. The women dined at the Riverfront Hilton dressed in their finest and looking like love. Shantih participated in basketball, softball, and track and field. Spring Sing rolled around and as usual it kept them busy. The theme was "I Heard It Through the Grapevine." Shantih did not place, but they made friends and grew closer as a club. They ended on a sad but happy note. Saying farewell to the seniors was a time for tears and joy. Shantih felt the loss of their club sisters but the memories they shared will live forever. Each senior was presented a gold bracelet, which would forever symbolize the friendships and memories made during their years in Shantih. When fall came they were ready to go. They started by wearing their bright orange jerseys to the front lawn for women's club open house. Mixers were an important part of their fall semester. These mixers helped them gain 35 new members which put them on top as the largest girls club on campus. Shantih could be seen actively talcing a part in Pledge Week. The week was highlighted with the beauty contest, where each "slug" dressed up in her finest clothing, picked out by her pledge mistress, of course, and demonstrated her talents on the steps of the Mabee Business Building. As the leaves changed and the weather turned cool, it was time for the hayride. It was also the first party for all of the new members. The girls and their dates had the time of their lives. To continue tradition the Christmas party was held at the Wyldewood Retreat Center. Games, Christmas carols, and fellowship was a perfect way to celebrate such a special time. Shantih had a wonderful year filled with good memories. Activities were held that were both fun and serious, but all were spiritually uplifting. They grew stronger and made friends that will last a 6 ife. Shantih Single Clubs Shantih. Front row: Elchuck, Chastain, Smoak, Harper, MacDonald, 1 Jackson, Kilpatrick, L.

' 'As a senior, I think the thing I will miss most is circling up after ameeting and singing the club song. I can always feel so much love between the girls, beaux, and sponsors and that feeling makes Shantih a special club."
