22fS'I'UDENT LIFE CHICAGO at night shines in her darkened 'glory. Her ' skyscrapers lean precariously against the inky void. Below in the maze ol lights, cars proceed slowly along the highways, snaking their way in and out ol the labyrinth ol boulevards. People scurry about their business like leaves in the whipping wind that sweeps our city, to what ends only they can tell. Have: 5,.,.4-.Y r . 1 ..s4..... Af i .

The presumption that it is unavoidable is a phenomenon unique to New Trier: almost everyone here is expected to continue his or her education somewhere beyond the world of 385 Winnetka Avenue. Some go to college to fulfill this dubious obligation: others go merely to insure future employment through a certified sheepskin. Most go to learn, to establish a lasting perspective on life, to fulfill needs not satisfied at the high school level, and to experience people and attitudesqunknown inside the North shore cocoon. There are basically two common visions regarding college life which every prospective scholar experienc- es-that of an utopian party palace where the most brilliant intellects yet produced by mankind teach philosophy on a campus which strongly resembles the '2.lNf1. Above Left: Wavering in the face of myriad choices, seniors flag down valuable insight from college-counseling secretary Mrs. Schwab. Above: A hard day's night at college finds brewing frustration released through high spirits. f Weston, Lincoln Q ' Elysian fields, and that of a suicide-inducing sweat shop of grueling labor, where bleary-eyed undergrads are perpetually climbing the ivy-covered walls. The latter image is foreshadowed by the application procedure, an effective promoter of insanity in its own right. Sheafs of transcripts, teachers' recommendations, and puzzling essay questions quickly throw your brain into a whirl of confusion and turmoil which encourages you to forget the whole thing altogether and procure a iob washing windows. But it is only after the admissions board has portentously declared its intent to absorb you into the college community that the full import of the situation hits you: you are now standing on the brink of a massive and inevitable change of lifestyle. After all these years, you are ready to put your past behind you, pull up roots, and timidly approach that single, monolithic experience known as College. STUDENT LIFEXZI
