On Their Own Time What did the average Bryan college student do when all the classes were over, all the meetings had been attended, and all the homework was finished? (a) developed relationships (b) hung out (c) ate (d) slept (e) all of the above The correct answer is (e) all of the above. After everything that needed to be done was either completed or ignored, stu- dents had a variety of choices as to how to deal with the concept of having free time. A priority on campus was to produce meaningful relationships, involving both God and friends. Personal devotions, as well as corporate Bible studies and pray- er groups, helped io draw the students closer to God. At the same time, a closer walk with God helped to build stronger. more significant relationships. Another great way to use free time was to hang out in such socially renowned areas as the Lion ' s Den. Not only did stu- dents enjoy playing pool, ping-pong, and foosball, but there was also the snack bar and the big screen television. Sometimes on weekends the Student Union rented movies and showed them. But this did not mean that students spent all their time on campus. Many hours were spent in Dayton, at such places as Wal-Mart, Pizza Hut, and Red Food. People also went to Chattanooga to watch movies and shop in the malls. Everyone had his own ideas about the best way to use free time. Because of that, the activities enjoyed were are ex- tremely varied, ranging from talking on the phone to singing in the stairwell, from playing Rook to playing hide-and-go- seek in Rudd Auditorium.

General Admission s) ' - -■ Just before the movie begins, the crowd ' s anticipa- tion is evident. Hey — what are you doing tonight? This question was asl ed more often than What homework is due tomorrow? and usually the answer was not Homework — yuk! Bryan students found many ways to fill free time, either relaxing in the Den with The Cosby Show or MacGyver, or with such Student Union movies as: PROJECT X, PRINCESS BRIDE, LADY- HAWKE, E.T., MAN FROM SNOWY RIV- ER, STAR TREK IV, and SAVANNAH SMILES. Many students also invested money, time and lots of gas to go to the many concerts that came and went this year. Into the Chattanooga and surrounding areas came: Twila Paris, Glad, DeGarmo and Key with the Altar Boys, Laura Comp- ton, Sandi Patti, Harvest, Stryper, Amy Grant and Michael W. Smith, Aerosmith, Guns and Roses, and the Romantics. To each of these concerts, at least several students went and thoroughly enjoyed themselves. S Student Life 1
