Photographer unknown. To be a true blue (and gold) Bruin, one had to go tunneling at least once. If you hadn ' t, read on. . . Did you ever notice that there were no high wires, no telephone poles, etc. on the UCLA campus? Tunnels are the answer. Below UCLA, in the dark, damp underground were utility tunnels stretching be- tween each building, thus tunneling was the act of (illegally) venturing through them late at night. Though tunneling was considered adventurous, students could have been expelled if caught in the act, according to the Dean of Students Office, because it constituted vio- lation of student conduct law. If tunneling was glamorous, the tunnels themselves were anything but. These passageways were small, dark, humid and very unsafe. Besides that, hot steam pipes and other obstructions were in the way of unwelcome visitors. One was easily hurt if not too cautious, which was part of the reason for their being off limits to anyone but authorized personnel, yet none of this stopped some nocturnal students from venturing through. Living out this type of fantasy could also result in an arrest by UCPD on trespassing and breaking and entering charges. Some amazing discoveries were made, however, in- cluding the fact that the stories the orientation counselors told about a river running past Perloff and Schoenberg Halls were true. -Casey Taylor Tunneling 2 1
