Sometimes the only thing that made getting through another day worthwhile was that it brought students one day closer to the weekend. Students put in their 8:30 to 3:30 five-day week routine, anx- iously awaiting the weekend so they could relax and have time for themselves. A popular thing to do on a Friday night was to go to the Andress football or basketball games, depending on the season. Movies, partying, and cruising were also popular pastimes on weekends. The most popular places for students' to energize themselves were Burger King, Wienerschnitzel, and Pizza Inn. And then there was Ant Hill, a good place to get to know that special someone better.
