Wednesdays In The Union Every Wednesday for the past nine years, Florida State ' s Union Green has been con- verted to a flea market of sorts that attracts vendors of every kind to peddle their wares. Barring monsoon-type weather, these faithful souls pack up their products weekly and set up booths to display and hopefully sell their goods to all the students who pass through the Union on their way to class. Actually, many students make a special effort to get over to the Union Green some- time between ten and four Wednesdays to see what ' s new, or to purchase that some- thing special they had been eyeing for weeks, but had been too broke to afford. Students are rarely disappointed because there is such a wide variety of wares offered. There is Esther — the antique jewelry lady who ' s been out there every Wednesday for the last two years; Janice, one of the lingerie ladies, who not only sells lingerie weekly, but offers students the opportunity to go to lingerie parties (which are something on the order of tupperware parties). Other offerings incl ude: baseball cards, tapes and records, handmade jewelry, paint- ed t-shirts, plants, posters and other dorm adornments, and occasional bake sales. Even the yearbook staff faithfully manned a booth each Wednesday, selling books and personal ads, and making students more aware of our existence. But the fun doesn ' t stop there! Other oc- casional attractions include: Brother Jed and Sister Cindy the preachers, who always draw a large crowd and a lot of input, FPIRG and other interest groups who have something educational to pass along to the students; and even the Bloodmobile can often be seen parked in the Union with volunteers recruit- ing students to give of themselves. This weekly event not only provides a con- venient way to shop for many students, it also provides entertainment for anyone who stops by, even for a minute! Kristin Johnson There are numerous items for sale — like these handmade earrings. T A Sister Cindy preaches upon deaf ears ' ' about the sins of college life. Many students just like to hang out in the Union. ► 16 Charging Forward

Esther has her antique jewelry booth set up every Wednesday, and is very popular with most students. ▲ The yearbook even managed to build a huge yellow sign and sit out in the Union weekly. Some people just like to relax with their friends on the Union Green (middle). Campus Life 1 7
