Christine Watts “It’s an occasion at Meredith that brings the classes closer together. I think it's good.” Temple Whits “Comhuskin’ is one ot the most exciting times in a Meredith student's college career. It's wonderful.” . Bliss Bright “I think It’s a special big sisterlittle sister occasion! I think it's good because it draws a big sister closer to her little sister; however, It does arrouse a lot of hostility between rivaling classes.” Barbara Andrews “Comhuskin' Is something you can't EVEN define!” Uzzy Mills "Comhuskin'. is one of Meredith’s most exciting and fun traditions.” Sally Dozier "I don’t know, I’m only a transfer."

QInny Leach •'Comhuskin' Is a great Meredith tra dition - good, fun competition!" KIm Jones "Comhuskin'. is too profound for “Comhuskin’ Is crazy women on the loose." Usa Clark “It causes too much noise. It's im possible to study and sleep. I don't think teachers should schedule tests. It’s overrated.” Stephanie Bonnett "I think the skits are creative, but I think everyone getting dressed and putting on all that make-up is silly. All the teachers say Conrhuskin' is great but a lot of ttiem won’t let students out of their 5:.0(? classes to parti cipate. \ don't tWfik that’s fair.” Paula Wright “I think Comhuskin’ caters to certain "groups" on campus. If you're friends with the people “in charge", you'll get involved. I don’t think you stand a chance on getting a leading role if you aren't In that 'click'. I also think ttiat If Comhuskin' was te^en away, there would not be anything to get excited about at Meredith." Cynthia Church wortis!” Jennifer Johnson WHAT IS CORN HUSKIN’ - ?
