Students fall under spell of hypnotist Paul Ramsay

Fall 2005 Orientation culminated in a "Penn College Welcome" event on main campus Sunday night, offering the academic community a last dose of summer fun before Monday's start of classes.

Students heard remarks from Penn College President Davie Jane Gilmour; Student Government Association President Sabrena O'Keefe; and Chester D. Schuman, director of admissions.

Their official welcome was followed by the traditional fireworks show, then a performance on the PDC lawn by hypnotist Paul Ramsay.

The following students were winners in the 2005 Fall Orientation Raffle. Their names were selected in a drawing among all students that attended every Orientation event this past weekend:
