Budgeting her time, a student utilizes every free moment in studying for her test. Cramming -the culmination of procrastination No quarter at Auburn is com- plete without a few all-nighters. An all-nighter is not spent with a date or with a group of merry-making buddiesg it is a serious time that is accompanied by a stack of text- books, several spiral notebooks, and a good study lamp. Until the early morning hours, nothing, ex- cept maybe the munchies, inter- rupts this study session. You will never forget the time you had your physics, chemistry, Too tired to t'bookie, this stu- dent finds sleep more effective. Armed with pillow and blanket, this student settles down to a night of study. and history tests on the same day. Here it was Thursday night with everyone else discoing at Dar- vos, and you were unhappily pouring yourself cup after cup of that bitter hot brew better known as black coffee. After bookin' it for seven solid hours in that lonely classroom in Parker Hall accom- panied only by your hot pot, alarm clock, and a stack of books, you hear the clock at Samford Tower strike three. Ah, well, you decide, you might as well rack for two hours and then take a breakfast break. Next thing you know, the bell is ringing and you hear footsteps in the hall. It's eight o'clock and you've overslept. You gather up your books and run as fast as you can toward your dorm room where you can find the sym- pathy of your roommate and a hot shower.

Diehards -fans who never give up As the leaves turned red and yellow and fall came upon Auburn, students packed up their cars and headed east- ward to Tennessee for their first away football game. Then as the leaves turned brown and fell off the trees, students still packed their cars to attend the away games. By the time football season had started, gas lines had lengthened as prices rose to S1 a gallon. But that didn't seem to hinder some of Auburn's fans. Four months earlier, the NCAA had handed down a three year probation in which period Auburn could not be extended a bowl bid. The NCAA also suspended the team from being televised during this time. Yet, despite this, students still supported their team in its away game chal- lenges. What inspires students to drive over 1500 miles to fol- low the progress of a football team who can't play in a bowl game? There are a variety of reasons that compel students to travel afar. As one coed put it. lt's just so much fun to go to the games. This opinion was held by many and was their primary reason for attending the Students meet at the Varsity prior to the Auburn-Georgia Tech game. Auburn fans fill the student section. Some fans dress to show their allegiance. With shakers waving, fans enter the stadium. '-N-Q-...K j. she wi? 30 I student life m. fo
