Bflunaiiiiiiiifur orld-wide, across-town, I have come from Detroit, from Toledo, from Jonesville and New Boston, New Delhi, New England, New York New York, from all these places-from home-to college. I am a stander-in-line, signer of last name, first name, middle initial, wearer of seal, receiver of chair, desk, bed, and a dream-a freshman. Being a freshman is a little frightening, being a freshman is a lot of fun . . . best of all, it's exciting, ifg unique-it's a beginning. College is coffee between classes, touchdown pass- es, cram exams, studies, buddies, skirling pipes, cam- pus gripes, things to do, a point of view . . . professors, books, labs, essay questions Qmake a stabj, steins of stout, turn about, English themes, dramatic screams, softball teams, impossible schemes . . . hard work, homework, slow work, no work . . . Listening, talking, thinking, walking, seeing, being . . . this is college, this and more-college, perhaps, is many doors. Studying is a bent back and hunched shoulders and sore eyes. It's loneliness. Itis humility, itls arrogance, itls patience, it's push, it's grind. It's a dog barking at three a.m. It's an empty coffee cup and a full ashtray. It's procrastination followed by despair. And sometimes-just sometimes-study- ing is something near joy, when the isolated bits sud- denly coalesce the filings Hy to the magnet-when a pattern, an analogy appears, and understanding oc- curs. Please! Address me as His Fabulous Frivolous Eminence. One Wise Beyond Caring QI walk with pigeons and puppies and popular girlsj, I am Mystic and Magnificent. I can improvise an ode Qraid the forbidden wings for sweetly scented underthingsj, create all manner of banners Qkeep running, we're brothersj, and sing fstereozzzingj! I fly, soar, swing, bless everything- I am spring w- simply because I am! I, id, sans lid, the Kid, the King, Poet, Scientist, Philosopher, Rex . . . Winner of pillow fights, bull sessions, water battles, and all bets, wooer of beautiful women, Pied iper pro em BMOC-ME, P' t , the college man! I am amorphous. I am nerve ends, ganglia, squeezed, compressed. I must stiffen, toughen, yet stay flexible. I want to be steel, I am afraid of becoming stone. I drift in limbo, sucking in fact, while I long for truth. As I turn over and over I seem to be shrinking-or am I coiling for a leap? And to where? I am supposed to be a microcosm, I am merely chaos, in little, I am not made cunningly. Yes- terday I caved in a little, today I think I will burst, I will surely die tonight. Was it in that week before Commencement, or while I sat in the hot sun, a prickle of sweat under the black bachelor's gown, or in those few empty days at home? Anyway, all at once I knew a little bit about why. I was out from under the suffocating mass of knowledge, there was a direction to go, a way to do it, and I knew the way. I did know, had learned. There was the door, the handle to turn, the latch to lift-and all those years I had been finding, acquiring, filling my pockets with keys. Already the doors are opening. Through how many shall I finally pass? ' 'I .2QEilf5l,as3l Q, .. I I ' , . . .:..3 1: ,olyiliutllziiit- 'l2i I 1 Q - - ' ' ff, ' -'A-:gag aa.-q,.,..fj' ffwiff , F ,.,k,.. . 1 ,. L..
