Kim Lewis, who lived in South Court, was discouraged with having to park behind Lora Robins because it was so far away.

Dunham when the money runs low,-stu epts go to cash flow only to they an t budge ollege. That word conjures up many intimidat- ing, yet wonderful thoughts. College was not only anticipating new friends and experiences, but also accepting new responsibilities, which were not as much fun as new friends. Along with going to classes. using spare time wisely, and choosing a major, came the job of managing money. Jill Hinkle respond- ed accurately, Money really isn't a problem, but it never seems to be around when l need to do the laundry or pay the phone bill. In the beginning it seemed simple enough. but the first bounced check brought the situation into perspec- tive. Tim Vaughan indicated It's never been a problem for me because l never had any money to manage. Considering a student's re- petitive use of the cash flow machine, it was not at all dif- ficult to understand how checkbook balancing be- came a challenge. Maybe S'Checkbook Balancing lOl should be offered during orientation or first semester next year. Of course. there were those individuals who were able to maintain their balance to a penny. And to them, we, the incompetent. owe a great deal. So. what was it that we spent all of this money on, anway? Without a car, students expected to be safe from temptation, excluding the bookstore. Amy Ruble explained, l'm wonderful at managing money, it just phone bill. usa ' ex, Money really isn't a problem, but it never seems to be around when l need to do the laundry or pay the manages to slip through my fingers. However, various groups on campus made doni ts, subs, baels, and irre- sistible raffle tickets availab e at your door, especially in the fall. During the day, someone was always selling something - jewelry, records, t-shirts, or posters -- in the Commons. Finally, theyi got us through the mail with the PHONE BILL. Wiithout a car, your fingers could still do the walking, and they did! With all of this possible vfithout a ear, the spending options with a car were linfitless. Regency Mall was located just a few miles from campus for shopping. Joanne Brown emphasized, My clothes budget is the largest and the most fun to spend. Richmond also of- fered numerous restaurants and night spots where money could be spent rapidly. Among students' favorites were Barry's, Darryl's, Villa Pizza, Fuddrucker's, O'Brienstein's, and TGlFri- day's. Well. Mom and Dad. this is what we spent our money on. Managing money was just one of those responsibilities learned through exper- ience. learned at college. lt probably became a part of every student and added tothe ties that bind us all to our college years. - Jill Hinkle - Mary Cate Miles I liinnn Ihiniul l x V . ,V 40 6 3 Lia t n Dtxghr y H Q J thllTDi ri X ' he 'Vlatre xA Da te 7 .
