Son of a Son Jimmy Buffett played Godwin Hall March 16 to a enthusiastic crowd. K ihe most noticeable change in the University is in the fringe benefits it offers. Limitless choices beckon students, facuhy. and locals to forget studying, working and localizing . Movies like The Electric Horseman . Dr. Zhivago . and The Rose , played nearly every Tuesday. Wednesday, Friday and Saturday nights. Mummenschanz , Vincent Price, and Jazzantiqua came to Madison through the Fine Arts Series. Top name acts Molly Hatchet, Pure Prairie League and Pat Benatar gave near sellout or sellout performances during first semester alone. Visiting Scholars Michael Yarmolinsky, Ronald Inglehart, and others, lectured and gave us all a chance to learn at leisure. Off-campus benefits, although necessitating a car, a good friend with one, or some sturdy Nikes gave brief respites from campus. The opening of JM ' s deli added to the list of Spanky ' s, The Pub, and Jess ' , for a place to go munch and sip. For the late night eater, C E kept doors open from 1 1 :00 pm to 7 am. During late summer and early spring. Blue Hole, Union Springs, and Rivendale Park, captured the hearts of swimmers, divers, and partyers. No matter the pastime, the opportunity is here. We hope our report shows it. Mr. Bill, Mr. Bill catches student attention whenever the videocassette TV is on. Leaning to far to win a prize during Spring Fever gets a reprimand from the shopkeeps. 10 Fringe Benefits

Terror Tower 1 en square feet of sand, clear green water, a thirty foot tower and hoards of students describe an afternoon at Union Springs. Halfway between Reddish Knob and nowhere, this containment lake provides students with a Virginia Beach, Shenandoah Valley style. Students arrive with coolers and blankets, to spend a day in the sun and the water. They leave with sunburns and buzzes. Activities for those daring enough, (or dumb enough), include Kamakazi diving from the thirty-foot platform and bragging about it afterwards. Other activities include sun-bathing, swimming and watching the idiots jump from the tower . The day ends as it began. A beer and a long drive home. Breaktime for Margaret Mullin. Kathy Comerford. Becky Tolley. Glenn Schacht and Sara Smith give a chance to soak up some suds and sun. Sync diving by Carl KHngenberg. Mike West, and Mark Smith, entertains the crowd at Union Springs.
