When talking to par- ents you often discuss your health, food and money. Then there are your friends from home that love to hear about the latest party, the saddest part of your love life, and how much your roommates grate on your nerves. But is there one person from home that really knows how demanding academic life is for you? When was the last time you attempted to explain why lines form outside the library during finals week? Have you ever explained your technique for reserving a seat in the library? How do you start a conversa- tion regarding the pros and cons of studing in your room? Well, you may not be comfort- able with discussing how much you study with your old partying pals from high school, but we all know where to go when we want to discuss the pressures of academics. The residence halls, for one example, are filled with people who have a ton of work to do! . You join people sitting in the halls iknowing them is not a requirementj and list off the things you must do and then listen to their lists. Absolutely nothing gets done during these talks, but do you feel good afterwards? Yes! Often we take each other for granted. Sometimes we ex- pect too much from each oth- er. But rarely do we appreciate the value of those that share with us the pressures of aca- demics. Think about the two weeks before finals last se- mester. What did you talk about? - Michele Frost James Taylor Fan. Catching rays and studying at the same time is a familiar scene in the early spring and fall. Fun in the Sun? Not really.

-. --- - - ----,fi v oly Cross students share a wide variety of interests in a truly Catholic sense, which ac- counts tor the healthy diversity among the students, and, iron- ically provides a strong basis for unity. After a week ot intel- Iectual pursuits and other ac- tivities, a majority of the stu- dents join together for the Sunday liturgy. Many who wish to take a di- rect role in shaping the faith of their peers are members ot the Committee for Campus Minis- try. The ministries include Eu- charistic Ministers, lectors, servers, the folk group, the schola, peer ministers, F.O.T.l-l.A.M. which is a dis- Solitude.
