THOSE WERE THE DAYS...
Editor’s Note: This Thursday series chronicles some of the most interesting, hilarious and monumental moments that happened this week in the
University’s history.
YOUNG ALLIGATOR SERVES AS ROOMMATE TO ADVENTUROUS STUDENT IN JOE BROWN
This year; students come back from Jacksonville with heavy hearts and hangovers, but at least they left the gators behind them. A Nov.
8,1834, issue of The Red & Black reported on an anonymous student's baby alligator in Joe Brown Hall (then a dorm). “The shower drain
was stopped up with newspapers, and the 'gator was able to disport himself freely in the pool thus formed, no doubt feeling much at home
in his native habitat Dreams of his native bayous and iagoons were rudely dispelled, however, when overflowing water begun leaking
through to the floor below, and proctor Moore {the dorm supervisor] objected strenuously to such use of the shower; even though it was
not being used for any better purpose." The pet owner then attempted to give the gator to his girlfriend as a gift, but when this plan fell to
pieces, the student again housed the gator in his dorm room, making sure to keep it far away from public restrooms.
RESULTS OF FRESHMEN INTELLIGENCE TESTS BRING TO LIGHT UNUSUAL NUMBER OF 'BONERS’
Don’t let the headline scare you.
In 1936, a “boner” was known as a horrendous or funny mistake made on the University freshman intelligence tests, which were adminis
tered to new students in order to score logical aptitude to compare with that of other institutions. “Where ignorance is bliss ’tis folly to be
wise. If this saying is to be taken literally then there are happy freshmen at the University, results of freshmen intelligence tests show,”
reported the Nov. 13, 1936, issue of The Red & Black. The Red & Black obtained the test results, selecting the oddest “boners” to share,
subsequently humiliating dim-witted newcomers. 'lf the apes could see this one they would no doubt go berserk. One freshman defined a
“orangutang” as a curved or angular club which can be hurled so that its flight will bring it back near to the place from where it was thrown.
One freshman thinks you chemists pick up a “beacon” for an open-mouthed, thin vessel. Most freshmen knew what an encyclopedia was
but few how to spell it. One student distorted it thusly: insicrepeter.'”
WSGA ANNOUNCES END OF WOMEN’S DRESS RULES
Today women walk to class In their pajamas and strut Broad Street in booty shorts —but just three decades ago, female students
couldn't even wear pants to class. The strict University women’s dress rules confined ladies to long skirts and dresses only. This week in
1967, women were finally allowed to wear whatever they wanted to class, without any restriction from the University. "Wte feel that women
here are responsible enough to know what to wear,” said Hannah Ledford, president of the Women’s Student Government Association. “I
have confidence that women will use their discretion and remember that they are on a college campus and are representing the University"

play the assorted parts,
which were all composed
by Pajak, who said she
chose the instrumentation
from her personal tastes In
musical sounds.
Pajak also chose a minor
key, rather than an upbeat
major scale.
“It just seemed kind of
appropriate,” she said. “In
Western music, minor
scales are just viewed with
a very somber feeling.”
Pajak began pursuing a
career in writing music
because of John Williams’
film scores. The intensity
of “Jurassic Park” and
childlike sparkle of “ET”
jump-started her curiosity
of music.
But now she wants to
help people, too.
Pajak is getting a sec
ond master’s degree in
clinical social work from
the University’s Gwinnett
campus to find a profes
sional fusion of music and
mental health.
“I’ve always enjoyed and
got the best feedback when
I wrote music based on a
current event or a disease
something a little bit
that had a social conscious
ness to it,” she said.
And Pajak found a way
to further scientific
research through her
music.
Proceeds from the
album will assist AIDS
research at the Emory
Vaccine Center and other
funds will be donated to
the University’s School of
Social Work.
