Alcohol
Awareness
Week:
Party Smart
Shirley Arnold
The themes for this years
Alcohol Awareness Week are
"Party Smart" and "Know Your
self". The committee, comprised
of staff and students, has desig
nated March 13,14,28, and 29 as
the days events will be held for
Alcohol Awareness Week. The
"Party Smart" theme comes prior
to Spring Break with the follow-up
theme - "Know Yourself" coming
after the break. Special events
concerning these topics are listed
following this article.
The overall theme is divided into
two parts: 1) to help students
know how to be responsible
drinkers and 2) how to abstain
from drinking if that is what's best
for you. We think the events being
presented will give students
assistance in making the decision
that is best for them (on an
individual basis).
Interest has beeen shown in
starting a BACCHUS Chapter
(Boost Alcohol Consciousness
Concerning the Health of Univer
sity Students) on our campus.
"BACCHUS is a national student
organization with affiliated chap
ters at institutions of higher
education in the United States.
Through education and activities
designed to increase awareness
of changing alcohol issues,
BACCHUS advocates informed,
independent decision making and
respect for the choice of absti-
nance." (from BACCHUS fact
sheet). The group will be com
prised of students with an adminis
trator/faculty person who is willing
to support their efforts. Please
contact the unapiain s Office for
more information concerning
either Alcohol Awareness Weeek
and/or BACCHUS.

On Campus
Fiction & Fact
From Jaclc's
Almanac
Here are the answers to the questions posed in the
last issue of T h e L a n c e. 1. The answer was the
campus directory... the clues were the addresses of
the first person in a long list of names...Alan Abrams,
the hero of Spartansburg S.C. and the "last person in
a list equally long...Mr. Theiron Young..."a noted
campus authority, 2. The students were of course,
Edie,Cheryl, Lisa, and Linda Jane, all of whom have
red hair, the clue "burgundy' matches Edie's street
address in Aiken. 3. The answer was Norama, the
world's shortest giant, who with Andy Mason, starred
in the azure video Ganza '86. 4. Riz and Lane share
the leader line on page 11 in the campus directory. 5.
Try" Martinez"... Tammy's last name (and Sharon of
Concord) and Sharon Train's hometown. 6. Eddie
Foy (ask Dr. Melton who he was) is no relation to
Sandra... Robert Frost is not kin to Jo, and finally,
certain evidence to the contrary, Brendon Flynn has
no tie to Errol of Tasmania. We are honored to note
however, Kim Costello is neice to Lou, Greg Dorsey's
uncles were Tommy and Jimmy and Judy Garland,
nee Frances Gumm was an aunt of our Susan.
7. The place names that were clues are the homes,
when not on campus, of Deborah Kelly, Sharon
Fields, and Brother Flynn, all from the Quaker City
area. Congratulations to BRENDA KRUEGER
who called in four correct answers before anyone
else. Brenda wins Gathering Place 25$.
