Extended Orientation is a beautiful thing at LeTourneau. The night air fills will the sounds of boys running to and fro on mission to do whatever secret task is assigned to them by their upper classmen or to follow the traditions established years before them. The goal- to become part of the family that we like to call your floor. During the day, guys walk around in starnge garb, wearing strange things like A1 bottles, and rocks, construction vests and being chaned together as they eat in the cafeteria. This is a different version of floor bonding. At LeTourneau we do not haze. We bond. The whole floor participates in an effort to make the whole floor grow into one united team. The girl version of E.O. is much different. A bit tamer if you will. Girl E.O. is like summer camp with some scavenger hunts and some get-to-know you games. I am not content to leave E.O. at this level on my floor. I reside on ELH 3. The floor of the phoenix. this year I have ordered red feather boas and we have donned our duct taped black shirts to proudly rep our team. Tonight we found out what we had in common as we played the 'get to know you game.'
