Provides Impressive Options to Fill Students Time Over summer vacation the Student Association began working on many new programs for the new semester. Led by President Susan Vaughn and Vice-President Steven Yates, the S.A. worked to convince the board of directors to allow students to wear approved shorts around campus during "off' hours. They won this battle and with one victory under their belt, the S.A. tackled the student body itself and asked for more school spirit. They sponsored the Game Ball Run and the pep rally for the HardingUCA football game which included a special guest appearance by popular Hanz and Franz. Homecoming was also a funfilled week of activities. The S.A. brought back Sadie Haw24 First Impressions kins week which was deemed a great success by both sexes. Opportunities for dates were readily available thanks to the committee's planning. The fun didn't slack off around the holidays either. On Halloween, with the help of Sub T-16, the S. A. turned the student center into a haven of horrors, and Thanksgiving and Christmas produced many successful food and toy drives for His House. The concept of "letting your light shine" was taken literally as Harding participated in the "Light-Up Searcy" campaign. The campus was in full glow with lights that lined the tops of buildings and adorned trees, bushes, and swings. The S. A. also played a large role in the spiritual guidance of the student body. Led by spiritual life director, Jeff Tacker, the traditional lily pool devos continued as an escape from studying and a time to focus on the most important lessons in life. As strong supporter of entertainment, the S. A. provided many activities ranging from concerts like Restless Heart to Maynard Ferguson and box office hits such as "Dick Tracy" and "Driving Miss Daisy." The selected entertainment accommodated most everyone's taste. Because of the S. A.'s hard work and .dedication to their new programs, the student body was uplifted and the year was improved.
