26 Fun For Nothing, Beer By Susan Mullejans There are a lot of fun things that you can't do in Marquette bars. Sometimes, when you want to get really out of hand, you have to go to a house party. The crowd at a house party is usual- ly more selective. When you hear about a party from one of your friends, you can generally assume that a lot of your other friends will be there. And when you're surrounded by friends anything goes. A good party always has good music. Some students literally spend hours of premium homework time creating their Hultimate party tapes,H which include either 60's or new wave dance tunes, or a delicately balanced combination of both. However, some experts will tell you that the two cannot be combined without ruining the overall effect of the tape. If the music is good enough, then dancing is inevitable. The peculiar thing about dancing at parties is that things start out calmly, but by the end of the evening, escalate to a virtual free-for-all - peo- ple doing the bump, the worm, the bunny hop or the party train . Friends may wander off with black eyes and bruises as the dance floor becomes a combat zone. Ridiculous new dance steps are made up, only to be completely forgotten by the next morning. You cant really dance in campus bars. And you can't drink in the com- fort of a familiar living room. You also can't do things that are borderline out-of-control, like jump- ing on people's couches and chairs, raiding the munchie cabinet for pretzels and chips or standing on a counter with your friends singing Christmas carols at the top of your lungs, without getting kicked out. In the bars you have to maintain some sense of dignity. No matter what shape you're in, you still have to act normal to a degree, or else the fig : Kacey

For Free bouncer will kindly show you to the door - not so at a house party. Houses offer a lot more space, and short of destroying property or in- vading someone's privacy, you can do anything you want. Best of all, you can do it for free. At some schools, people throw rent parties, charging admission - usually about $2 - and keeping whatever profits they make to pay for their rent or utility bills. The beauty of Marquette is that most parties are free. People open up their houses to friends along with a ew relative strangers, and provide beer and food, all in the spirit of fun. hey don't charge admission. All they .5k is that you have a good time. And with all the advantages of a arquette house party, how could you not have a good time? Marquette house parties. Below - Freshman Chris Hellmich and Seniorjohn Ktenson check out the party scene.

Augustin A1 terna ti ves To The Bars By Beth Slaughter At Marquette, one of the most popular weekend activities is hitting the local bars. But this year, that tradition ended for one segment of the Marquette population. The recent increase in the drinking age exctuded a large part of the freshman population from the bars, and much of the exciting night life found there. To remedy their situation, many freshmen began frequen- ting house parties. Since proof of age was not a requirement, freshmen were allowed to take part in one the most highly an- ticipated activities of college life w parties that were not about to be broken up by someones parents. House parties used to be dominated by upperciassmen, who got tired of the crowded, smoky bar scene. However, as a result of the new tegislation, up- perctassmen were suddenly free to choose between the now Crowded and smoky parties or their old Iess-crowded haunts. Many welcomed the newly- rediscovered choice. There's more variety on weekends now! said Speech Sophomore David Bream. I'm not going places to avoid freshmen, but it's nice to go someplace that 1511': full of people. However, house parties weren't the underage drinker's only alternative. Suzy Schaller, an engineering sophomore, commented that she had been approached by freshmen who want to borrow her ID. The change in the drinking age made freshmen partying a little inconvenient, but with a little creativity, not altogether impossible. r 27
