I would like to take this 
     
     opportunity to welcome you back to 
     
     U.P.E.I. and I hope that you all 
     
     had a good summer. I would also 
     
     like to express a special greeting 
     
     to all the new students at U..P.E.Io 
     
     this year. we had a record number 
     
     of freshmen register-for orientation 
     
     this year and it wasa smashing 
     
     success. I extend thanks to all, 
     
     the freshmen who participated and 
     
     hope you learned a few things 
     
     about U.P.E.I. To those new 
     
     students who didn't participate 
     
     in orientation, I urge you to becate 
     
     involved in Student Union activities; 
     
     we are your organization. I want 
     
     to express my sincere thanks to a 
     
     group of dedicated individuals who 
     
     made orientation possible this yearo 
     
     The Orientation Committee met weekly 
     
     all summer and worked many long 
     
     hours to put together the best 
     
     orientation week that U.P.E.Io 
     
     has ever seen. To the co-chairpersons, 
     
     Ronalda Murphy and Iori Lawless, 
     
    

    
     I owe a debt of gratitude; we 
     
     could not have done it without you. 
     
    

    
     I worked full time for the 
     
     Student Union this summer and it was 
     
     indeed a busy one. On May 31, as 
     
     I am sure most of you know, we had v 
     
     afireintheBarn. Thedamagewas 
     
     extensive in the Panther Lounge area 
     
     where the fire started and the 
     
     rest of the building recieved smoke 
     
     and water damage. There were many 
     
     tense moments during the reconstruction 
     
    

    
     -. terms of having it completed in 
     
     time for theFall Semester but 
     
     work was completed the week before 
     
     orientation. The Panther Iommge 
     
     is completely new. 'Ihe second 
     
    
   
   
    
       
     
    
   
   
    
     THE PRESIDENT’S 
     
     REPORT- 
     
    
   
   
    
     floor has new walls, floors and 
     
     paint. The downstairs has new floors 
     
     and ceilings. The building looks 
     
     very good and you are invited to 
     
     come down and see it. 
     
    

    
     Another new addition to the 
     
     Barn is our campus radio station, 
     
     CIMN. It now occupies one-half 
     
     of the entire third floor- If you 
     
    
   
   
    
     ' «live on campus, it is located at 
     
    
   
   
    
     700 on your radio dial. If you 
     
     live off campus, it will be going 
     
     out on cable FM in approximately 
     
     three weeks.; you will be able to 
     
     receive it anywhere on P.E.I. if 
     
     you have cable T.V. by hooking 
     
     your TOV. cable to the FM antenna 
     
     output on your radio. This is a 
     
     major accomplishment for us and I 
     
     hope you will listen to and support 
     
     CM._ It is all new and it is yours. 
     
     I would like to express the great 
     
     appreciation of the U.P.E.I.S.U. 
     
    

    
     to John Bently and Gordon Johnston 
     
     for the long hours they spent in 
     
     putting it together for us. The 
     
     music will be far better than it 
     
     has in past years and CINN will 
     
     also be broadcasting many away games 
     
     of the U.P.E.Io Intercollegiate 
     
     athletic teams.
