Perhaps the most vis- ible sign of the year in motion was the ever-pre- sent construction around campus. Visitors to the campus . who haven ' t seen it in a few years may thini they stopped at the wrong uni- versity: Pratt Drive was re- placed by a cul-de-sac end- ing at the HUB and a lighted walkway extending to Esch and Wallace halls. Around the Oak Grove, Wal- ler Hall was closed for reno- vations and the steps in front of Leonard and Wilson Halls were rebuilt during the winter. The cogeneration plant started operating in full ca- pacity in the fall although a pipeline mix-up caused damage. Also visible around campus were the huge oil derricks which drilled four wells to general natural gas for the cogen plant. lUP took a step in simpli- fying the registration pro- cess as it implemented a test-run in which 548 stu- dents participated by telephone. Finally, a committee to study AIDS on campus was formed. Top:The HUB parking lot was completed a.s the fall semester began. Fur right: Gymaifl Sue Wahl moves with grace on the beam.

Our way of living at lUP is one that keeps us constantly in motion. From running to classes all day to partying, exercising, studying or re- laxing at night, there ' s not much time for boredom. For many of us, this fast- paced lifestyle is quite a change from the way we ' re used to living at home. Lifestyles Amy Thewes Assistant: Robin Crawley Gone are the days of home-cooked meals and warm nights on a thick mat- tress. Instead, we trade these for caf food, Sheetz dogs and dormitory beds. Our days fly by with exams and papers and we sometimes find that even all- nighters don ' t help us to get the A we all desire. To let this frustration out, we share a variety of methods. Some look Editor: immediately to sports: smashing a racquetball, sweat- ing through aerobics or rolling through a game of mud football are great ways to clear our test-fried minds. Others look for less painful meth- , ods of release, such as going to a movie on campus or at one of the malls, taking advantage of an Activities Board event, partying uptown or around campus, or simply relaxing with a bowl of popcorn and the television. Our lifestyle at lUP is also reflected in our clothing. When waking for an 8:00 class at 7:45, some abandon any thought of fashion for a ballcap and sweats. The typical rainy Indiana day also makes it difficult for one to sport the new shoes, knowing they ' ll be ruined by the rain-and-mud filled sidewalks. But despite our indi- vidual differences, the fact that we ' re all lUP students means we share a com- mon lifestyle. Students move across Oakland Avenue between classes on their way to the Oak Grove. Lifestvles .
