Does anyone else ever look at pictures of groups on other campuses and think they look like they would belong to a different group on your own campus?

The girl in the yellow sweater and skirt in the informal rush pic is wearing my late 80s uniform. Also, similar hair. I'm afraid my doppelgänger may have been your sorority sister.

Am I glad that I wasn't in college in the eighties! My hair would have neither curled nor stayed big for over 5 minutes!

Yes, God chose right when he had me in college in the seventies.

80s hair was so easy, though. Perm+mousse+drying your hair upside down+ a can of Aqua Net and boom, you're done.

Oh wait. I see what you mean.

amIblue?, my hair was arrow (haha! pun kind of intended) straight no matter what I did. Although I wore it very long like almost everyone else, not even the short new growth curled in the humidity.

I have the same hair in its natural state. I used to get so ticked when my hair would get flat back in the day. I did all kinds of crazy stuff to make my hair bigger.

Ditto. I was and am still a fan of the perm. At the time (in the 80's) it was short and TIGHT, now it's shoulder length and much looser (the result being people are surprised to learn it's a perm). Thanks to age and hair going from ridiculously coarse to fine, it will actually hold a perm at this length and tightness. Minus it my hair is the envy of all those girls who flatiron their hair.

LOL! I swore off perms in the 1980s! Haven't had one since and haven't really missed it. Now I see your post and think, "hmmmm...."!

Re: the Brad Pitt picture
A girl I knew used to double date with him in college - he was dating one of her DG sorority sisters. She said people were stunned when he dropped out of school early to try to make it big in the movies, and no one really thought it would come to anything; she described him as having bad skin and not being all that, but in the KD picture he looks as if he's already on his way to Hollywood.

Re the perms: One of the Jewish girls on my floor who had naturally curly hair had to show me how to blow out my perm if I wanted it straight - she realized that I had never had anything but bone-straight hair and had no idea there was any option other than curls. And yes, they stunk to high heaven.
