The blaring of a concert, the rigidness of classrooms or the noise of end- less construction is always in Its presence. But being surrounded does not indicate isolation. 0n the contrary, It is constantly in contact with the students. The morning students al- ways seem to be in a hurry. But later in the day, many students tend to meet somewhere around It to talk with friends and classmates. Creatures, other than the human kind, also seem to like It. One of those little furry animals can usual- ly be found scurrying around col- lecting little tidbits. When these critters venture from It, they are known to be endangered, particu- larly at specific times of the year. But around It, man and animal are as equals - each having his own worth. It has been decorated from time to time. Sometimes in the spring, It is clad with balloons or paper streamers. Often students feel like decorating It with test papers, homework assignments or lecture notes. The most recent chapter of Its historic past is the face-lifting pro- cedure ordered by the administra- tive branch of the university. Stu- dents complain ofthe defacing and inconvenience of the construction. To be so much a part of campus life, why is it that It usually goes unnoticed? Or that students only notice It when something is wrong and they never see it for its contri- bution to the campus? Its name, you ask? Well, for the sake of having a name, why don't we call It - the Quad. Photo by Greg Vincent Student Life 29
