( STUDENT GOVERNMENT I ' m going to be studying at the library until 11 o ' clock tonight. Could you find someone going my direction so I won ' t have to walk back to the dorm by myself? Taking advantage of the Student Govern- ment ' s Buddy System, late studiers were paired with others so that no one on campus had to walk home alone in the dark. While not many persons employed the service, more students became aware that campus crime could be combatted. Originally, before the pro- ject was instituted, a study of reported assaults revealed that most attacks occurred during the early evening as students walked to labs or the library. Both the campus police and Student Government worked together to make the campus safe. However, the difficulty in finding buddies caused the project to be discontinued. Closely connected to the need for the Buddy Sys- tem was the institution of a 24-hour open undergradu- ate library. Dr. Lorene Rogers opposed keeping the AC open continuously, stating that that majority of students merely used the facility during final exams. After con- cessions by both Rogers and Student Government, the AC remained open from 7 a.m. to 2 a.m. during the semester; during finals students could study around- the-clock.

TO CELEBRATE THE SUCCESS OP THE CHECK-OFF, STUDENT GOVERNMENT WILL PUT ON A Giarrr nals f Fun (james. ' f elites AUOie ftorZ letryau. anty SO !! pease SaX.OCT. 16.4PM Giant Revel Creative partiers entertain themselves with a kazoo jam Mime Christina Barnum endures the dreary weather. During the Arts and Sausages campaign, Skip Sly- field claimed that if he were elected, the Absurdist ' s Student Government would provide a different specta- cle each month. To keep the promise, the Absurdists planned a beer party at Pease Park for the October event. Fashioned after Eeyore ' s Birthday celebration held annually in April, The Giant Revel premiered, offering games and contests amidst a carnival-like atmosphere. While the weather threatened to cancel the festivities, the Saturday happening went as sched- uled despite the rainfall and low temperatures on the previous Friday. Since the party was held close to Halloween, most who attended the festivities dressed in costumes. Car- men Miranda, complete with fruit, won first place in the costume contest. Members of Student Government entertained the partiers with Brain Police, a farcical skit about the Jester Center narcotics raid. Throughout the day, beer was sold for a mere quarter per glass, rousing everyone into the partying mood. Getting into the spirit of the 1976 national election, Wavy Gravy made an appearance with his Nobody for President campaign. Aside from the original entertainments, tra- ditional activities such as a tug-of-war amused the gathering of approximately 1 ,500 students. Giant Revel 253
