What is your favorite memory about Gardner-Webb University?

My favorite memory is right after a meal catching up with everyone in the student center downstairs. We would play Pinball, PacMan or watch the latest music videos on the big screen (32 inch) TV. We did not have as much as the students do today, so we socialized and built relationships that still last today.
