The freshmen and more sea- soned transfer students, are also given a more formal welcome, by none other than University President Robben Fleming, and the current SGC president. It was at Wednesday night's Presidents' Welcome that 1 first met Larry. Larry leaned heavily against a pillar in front of Hill A u d ., where the festivities were due to begin. He was one of the orientation leaders, upperclass- men, freshmen and other hang- ers-on who had come to hear Fleming and Student Government Council's Bill Jacobs. Larry has been at the Uni- 'U' frosh versity for three years now. He said he had come to Hill be- cause hehad never heard "ei- ther whatz-' is-name or whatz- is-face" speak. Larry chatted for a while, then took his seat inside, where Flem- ing, visibly moved by the death of his mother Tuesday - was tel- ling the freshmen of the Clatss of '76 to reflect the Spirit of 75, America's bicentenniel. "I'm not as remote a figure as some people think a president of a large University should be," Fleming continued. (This was news to some people who had come to see Fleming speak ;or the first time in their oftinmes long University careers.) Cutting off his speech a f t e r the usual, "I've already spoken longer than I should," remark, Fleming was followed to ti h e podium (a gift from the Class of '69) by SGC president B i 1 1 Jacobs told the students that the University had "probems ' and that the way to solve them was to "get involved." The freshmen were seemingly impressed. Said one: "It's good that someone cares about im- portant things and is looking ot for my interests." Larry laughed. Carlson, an eight-year usher at Hill, said he found the welone to have been fairly typical ex- cepting the fact that the "sire Rent your Roommate with of the crowd is the smallest I\e ever seen." There were about 700 students at Hill, about half last year's turnout. Larry, who finally revealed a degree of astuteness, had an ex- planation. "No freshman wants anybody to know that he is a freshman and coming to the Presidents' welcome is a dead giveaway.'
