by mary elizabeth winther ('15) O n A u g u s t 26th, 201 I, over 9 0 0 incoming freshman arrived o n Hope's c a m pus. R e a d y to w e l c o m e t h e m into the H o p e c o m m u n i t y w e r e the orientation staff m e m b e r s , a g r o u p of students c o m p o s e d of t w o directors, over 2 0 assistant directors, a n d about 15 0 orientation assistants, or OA's for short. This t e a m h a d b e e n working tirelessly to organize everything from nametags, to planning events such as the picnic in the pine grove, PlayFair, a n d ev e n a n improv performance! Carly Henkle f 12), o n e of the t w o orientation directors, has b e e n involved in planning orientation since her s o p h o m o r e year, a n d has loved each year since. "Ou r staff w a s incredible — they w o r k e d together so well a n d w e couldn't h a v e d o n e it without every single o n e of them. It w a s so rewarding to see their energy a n d love for H o p e College, a n d then to just w a t c h as the n e w students gained enthusiasm a n d excitement ab o u t their n e w journey. It's always b e e n a personal joy of m i n e to see the parents that w e e k e n d . T h e y c o m e in nervous, m a y b e excited, with lots of questions, a n d it'sjust m y favorite to see t h e m leave smiling- k n o w i n g they've left their child in a g o o d place w h e r e they'll g r o w a n d b e surrounded b y people w h o w a n t to see t h e m thrive." T h e w e e k e n d e n d e d with a convocation address from Dr. Mar c Baer, a professor of history a n d chairperson of the department, w h o asked that the n e w freshmen look b e y o n d themselves for w i s d o m as they s p e n d the next four years improving the self within. " W e often ha v e to reach outside ourselves in order to g r o w inwardly," Dr. Baer said.

by mary elizabeth winther ('15) H e a v e Ho, H e a v e Ho, H e a v e Ho... After training for weeks, it all c a m e to a n e n d Saturday October 1, 2 0 1 I at the Black River. T h e freshman a n d s o p h o m o r e teams c o m p e t e d with o n e another across the water in tug of war. This has b e e n a H o p e College tradition since 1898, with this year being the I 14th Pull competition. T h e teams consist of 3 6 people: 18 pullers a n d 18 moralers. J a c o b B o n n e m a (’14) said 'The Pull is unlike anything I've ever d o n e before. I've never b e e n a part of something that relies so heavily o n teamwork. Being a part of the Ev e n Year t e a m has b e e n a n incredible blessing a n d I loved every second. I hav e m e m o r i e s that will last a lifetime, a n d even better is the family that I b e c a m e a part of through it." T h e Pull is ab o u t working as a team, pushing yourself to the limit, a n d facing the o p p o n e n t that cannot b e seen. "It's the mos t brutal training I have ever g o n e through, a n d I'm glad I got to d o it with all of m y n e w brothers a n d sisters o n the rope. O d d Year baby!" says Dillon DeVries ('15). This year, both years brought their A - g a m e in a pull that lasted just ab o u t three hours. T h e moralers o n both sides motivated their pullers as they spent hours in their pits, but in the end. O d d Year returned from the Black River victorious. This is the 31 st time the freshmen hav e w o n . O d d year w o n for the s e c o n d time in a row, m a k i n g it their 4 2 n d win. ■ arifa broökins-hinton (T3)

M e m b e r s of the student activity committee planned the publicity strategy, the decorations, the food, a n d the music, a n d spent hours decorating the ballroom to m a k e it perfect for the dance. All this hard w o r k definitely pays off, as p r o g r a m director Carly Henkel ('12) says, " O n e of the m o s t challenging things for m e is working ahead. It's important to ha v e a lot of things reserved a n d scheduled a n d double checked multiple times, since this is such a large scale event a n d w e w o r k with s o m e outside businesses.

Eac h year, a dedicated g r o u p of students b a n d s together to host a Relay for Life event at H o p e College. This event, w h i c h is part of a nation w i d e organization, is m e a n t to raise both cancer awareness a n d funds for cancer research. Participants in Relay form teams, with the goal of having at least o n e t e a m m e m b e r walking at all times. This year's Relay for Life, w h i c h lasted for 12 hours, included the traditional walking a r o u n d the track, ceremonies that h o n o r e d loved one s w h o hav e battled with cancer, a n d g a m e s a n d contests to keep participants energized. These activities included a n inflatable obstacle course, a four square tournament, a n d eve n a bubble g u m blowing contest for lung cancer awareness. Rachel English ('13), o n e of the co-chairs of the planning committee, is p r o u d of the hard w o r k by both the committees that m a d e Relay possible, a n d the teams that attended. "This year's Relay w a s b y far the best Relay w e ha v e ever h a d at Hope. Although w e h a d fewer teams a n d fewer participants this year, w e raised almost twice the a m o u n t of m o n e y as w e did last year. W e w e r e b l o w n a w a y b y the teams. N o t only did they raise a lot of m o n e y for the Amer i c a n Cancer Society, but a lot of people stayed the w h o l e night a n d w e r e very energetic, ready to play g a m e s a n d c o m p e t e in the different competitions w e h a d set up. It w a s just a lot of fun. O u r hard w o r k definitely paid off." ■ mary elizabeth winther (’15)

Their mission is "to develop our leadership potential through meaningful conversation with professionals a n d practitioners in all fields, through experiences including trips to large metropolitan areas, a n d through a c o m m i t m e n t to continuous learning." For the school year 201 1-2012, they certainly held u p this mission, pursuing professional trips a n d e n g a g i n g in social activities. Wasting n o time getting stated, the Baker Scholars visited Forte W a y n e Indiana, touring a steel mill a n d meeting s o m e of the m o s t powerful industrial people in the county. Shortly after, they w e r e in Chicago, meeting m a n y businessmen including the President of the Chicago Cubs. T h e n without slowing d o w n , the Scholars set their sights for China w h e r e they gained considerable k n o w l e d g e observing international business in a "global environment". "The Baker Scholars is a n excellent opportunity to network with business leaders a r o u n d the world," said Charles Patchak ('13). "The connections from being a Baker are endless a n d the opportunities are even m o r e infinite." Back h o m e o n c a m p u s , the Scholars hosted speaking events a n d w o r k e d o n initiatives to give back to the c a m p u s through service projects. ■ drew

Tenacity by m e g h a n m u n o z (’13)

T h e 201 1-2012 season w a s a season of tenacity for the H o p e W o m e n ' s S w i m m i n g a n d Diving T e a m . Tenacity is the resistance of being pulled apart, a tendency to b e persistent in maintaining. After losing a strong class of leaders a n d point-scorers, a n d then facing several other losses, the t e a m stood at a small n u m b e r of 18. Howev e r , that did not stop the s w i m m i n g D u t c h from having the s a m e record of 5 - 3, 5 - 1 within the MIAA, as last year. T h e w o m e n h e a d e d into hosting the M I A A C h a m p i o n s h i p m e e t at the Holland Aquatic Center with the s a m e purpose of maintaining, with the s a m e tenacity they took with t h e m through the regular season. S o m e of the stand out s w i m m e r s this season w e r e Senior Captain Sarah S o h n (’12), Junior Captain Libby Westrate ('13), Junior Erin Holstad ('13) a n d S o p h o m o r e Maria Kieft (’14).

Westrate ('13) also w e n t into the champio n s h i p m e e t with a N C A A consideration cut in the 100 Free already u n d e r her belt. Holstad (’13) proved to be to b e a n asset to the team, filling in h u g e gap s left by seniors from last year.

Kieft (’14) w e n t into the MIAA's as the top seed in the 100 Backstroke a n d w a s a strong force in backstroke events throughout the season. H o w e v e r m u c h a n individual sport s w i m m i n g m a y seem, it takes a w h o l e team, 18 girls for H o p e W o m e n ' s S w i m m i n g a n d Diving, to persistently maintain. T h e s w i m m i n g D u t c h took 2 n d last year at the MIAA's a n d planned to d o so again, but they also planned o n giving Calvin a run for their m o n e y .

Ipha G a m m a Phi by caitlin Mask ('12) After a year of tumultuous twists a n d turns that brought the Alpha G a m m a Phi sorority to a familiar place - small in n u m b e r s - a pledge class of 12 n e w m e m b e r s w a s the last thing w e thought w e ' d see. But little did w e k n o w , the massive incoming freshman class brought nearly 2 0 0 girls to rush events this spring. After the rush process w a s through, w e w e r e totally stoked to w e l c o m e 12 fresh faces to the Alpha Phi tradition. It m a y have b e e n thanks to our active presence o n c a m p u s during the 201 1-12 school year. After all, our participation in events like Relay for Life a n d D a n c e M a r a t h o n lends us the opportunity to s h o w c a s e our love a n d spirit a n d true dedication to c a m p u s life. Perhaps it h a d to d o with our service projects within the c o mmunity, w h i c h brought us to a deeper understanding of giving a n d receiving. Itcouldhave b e e n d u e to our fund raising efforts - like the jewelry sales w e hold every semester with O n Silver Shores, a boutique from Zeeland. Itcould hav e b e e n our strong ties to our brothers, the Knickerbocker fraternity, w h o joined us in our D a n c e M a r a t h o n a n d Relay for Life efforts. O r perhaps itw a s the severe dedication of our five graduating m e m b e r s of five consecutive pledge classes, w h o ha v e brought something n e w to Alpha G a m m a Phi every semester since spring 2009. Their help, along with the c o m m i t m e n t of the rest of the sorority m e m b e r s , has given us a lot of h o p e for years to c o m e . Regardless of the reason, the Alpha Phis are h a p p y to be together, to b e so highly h o n o r e d as to b e featured in a yearbook, to w e a r our green a n d gold for years to c o m e . ■
