Gowpas Our World V'f-'K} Orientation gave us a campus tour and a map, but what we really needed was a guide. We soon became familiar with locations called ECB, Spotts, and Vinnie's.

Our world was a mix of old and new that blended together to create the distinct personality of the Rock. Nightime created patterns of lights and shadows that transformed our campus.

Union Lifte Student’s Refuge The University Union provided us with an atmosphere for many rest and retaxation activities. Watching our favorite soaps every afternoon gave us an escape route far, far away from Slippery Rock University. Mastering game shows also became a popular sport in front of the t.v. screens. The basement gamer-oom was the setting for many competitive sports ranging from pinball to biBtards. The air was always filled with the sirens and bells of students sharpening their skills. Socializing was always the main event, how- ever, at the Union. There was nothing quite foe joining good friends in conversation. by Diane Calhoun The Paddle Palace Is a good place lor blowing off steam and meeting a few friends. If ping pong begins to bore you, Just step next door to the an cade. Toy Here Is the key to relaxation. Games, darts, pool cues etc. are available to the bored or harried student who needs to chill out. Anyone for billiards?
