In relieT and wiTh a melancholy Teeling, she realized MCC sTudenTs will no longer cause her Tloors To sag and her sTairs To crealc. The sTudenTs she had served gladly have given her The needed resT and vacaTion Trom The husTle and busTle ThaT characTerize college liTe. l-lowever, she had ample op- porTuniTy To see her old Triends as They hurried down The paTh To The old senior high school nexT door, The new college headguarTers. ln moving MCC Trom The Annex To her own building came a GALAXY oT FTRSTS. The sTaTT ioined Torces To pro- vide an educaTional program suiTed To The needs oT The communiTy, Tlexible enough To meeT The diversiTy oT The individual siTuaTion and problems, and adiusTed To The besT available meThods and pracTices oT The Time. The Annex building iTselT will soon be iusT a memory To iTs Tormer sTu- denTs. The public decided, via a reTerendum This spring, ThaT The Annex should noT be remodeled Tor classroom use. lT will, ThereTore, be razed To pro- vide much needed parking space Tor The vehicles oT MCC sTudenTs and sTaTT.

, ,, ., Campus Rumpus: Study and Fun The MCC library, expanded wiTh many new vol- umes, provides maTeriaI Tor sTudenT research, Nor- man McLean, Dick I-Iinkelman, John Miller, and Joyce PTeiTer sTudy an aTIas, while Bob Lindholm scans The newssheIT'. Sporfs, Too, raTe an enThusiasTic response Trom The sTudenTs who eagerly check The schedules oT MCC games. PosTing The baskeTbaII schedule is Gerald Jungiohan. STudy, recreaTion, and reIaxaTion are imporTanT parTs oT a college sTudenT's busy liTe. When he is noT in class, he needs a guieT place To sTudy and a noT-so-guieT place where he can relax and exchange ideas. BeTore This year, The one and only college lounge was locaTed nexT To The MCC oTTice in The Annex. This was The room where sTudenTs meT, sTudied, conversed, played cards, and snacked on cokes and candy which They pur- chased Trom The machines There. This was The one parT oT The building solely reserved Tor MCCers. And iT was nearly bursTing iTs seams! The TacT ThaT This lounge was puT To such hard use proved ThaT The sTudenTs needed and deserved more lounging space. ThereTore, when MCC obTained The presenT build- ing, Three rooms were seT aside Tor This purpose. These rooms have been equipped To meeT The non-academic needs oT college men and women. In addiTion, MCC now has an adeguaTeIy sTocked library Tor The research which is noT only all-imporTanT To good grades, buT is deTiniTeIy indis- pensable Tor a sound educaTion. IT a sTudenT wishes To sTudy inTensiveIy, he can do so in The noiseless library. IT he would raTher discuss The lesson or compare noTes, The place Tor him is The large second Tloor sTudy lounge. Does he need a quick pick-me-up? T-Ie can buy pop, milk, and orange drink Trom The machines in The candy room, in addiTion To candy and gum, oT course. Perhaps he is The Type who would raTher TorgeT iT all Tor a while and iusT Talk or parTicipaTe in a Triendl game OT cards. I-le will Tind agreeable companions in The TirsT Tloor game lounge. IT he would raTher exerT his body Than his mind Temporarily, he can make good use oT The ping- pong Table in The adjoining room. ThereTore, while The sTudenTs have noT changed, The school has! More and beTTer lounging space has been made available so ThaT MCC can saTisTy her sTudenTs socially as well as inTeIIecTuaIIy. I? T. 4. LT QE 'i I We T T
