Going from home cooked food to oofeteria meals is one of the most dramatic changes any student encounters. Generally, this change is most noticeable to the freshmen; however, each fall the upper level students must once again make the adjustment to the school food. Though Shamrock, Southern ' s food service, is not the worst, one cannot help but tire of the same ol ' meats and vegetables. In search of more satisfying food. Southern students have selected certain Birmingham restaurants as favorites. One such establishment is the Smoke- house. A local truckstop slightly over a mile from campus, the Smokehouse serves an array of fresh meats and vegetables at a reasonable price. At a little higher price and a unique atmos- phere of the 20 ' s, Spats has become a favorite with many Southern students. On the other hand, there are those time s when students simply prefer a hamburger from one of the fast food chains. While the Smokehouse, Spats, and McDonalds are all very different, each establishment offers Southern students a change from the routine of cafeteria eating. 10

A YEAR FOR CHANGING As the structural changes on campus are visible, there are changes within the lives of the students v hich are not appa- rent to the human eye. Specifically, the freshman year is a time v hen nevj stu- dents undergo changes in lifestyle and relationships, For many freshmen, col- lege means being away from home for the first time. Leaving a familiar environ- ment and close friends can cause any- one to become homesick. Along with those who are homesick, there are many students who simply do not like their living conditions. With small rooms furnished for two, sharing one of these rooms in itself is a very big change for some. While the dorms may not be like home, this adjustment is soon over- shadowed by the dally shift from home cooking to cafeteria food. As the freshmen experience these changes, he or she is never alone. The minute he arrives on campus, he begins to make new friends. The pledge class, dorm, classroom, library or cafeteria are among the places where those who are sharing these common experiences come to know one another. It is throughout the entire year that the freshman is faced with one surprise after another. Not many of these students were used to paying high prices for books or staying up late at night study- ing; and who was that person who said Dr. Randall ' s courses were crip. At the beginning of the year things seemed rough and sometimes unfair, However, as time passed, the new sur- roundings and friends blended with the campus activities to provide a new world of excitement.
