A reason that some of us gave for not attending class was that we were in courses we didn't enjoy. everyone was required to take cer- tain subjects, no matter what our majors were. So people interested in physical education took all the gym courses they could, while non- jocks suffered through the two- semester minimum. English majors welcomed Freshmen English classes, while lit-shy students counted the seconds till it was over. But even though few of us liked every course we were in, we all benefitted from a well-rounded, comprehensive ed- ucation. INTENSE CONCENTRATION for Lee Ann Costello as she finishes her essay on the literature exam. Because the tests were of- ten mentally draining, no one was allowed to take more than two per day. wed to miss a certain num- fclasses and made a point of so. For teachers it was either paperwork or an important of the grading system. Opin- on this issue were diversified, he majority felt that since stu- s paid for the classes, deciding many to miss should be left up em. Another of 2C2C's mandatory aspects was found in the last week of each semester. This was the time set aside for final exams. Always bringing at least a tinge of panic, the tests proved to be about the same in college as they were in high school. Content depended largely on the teacher, and sometimes A students were even exempt. Those of us who did take the exams had different ways to prepare. Some of us popped No-doz and stayed up all night, cramming three months of facts into our suddenly overworked brains. Others had a more carefree attitude and skimmed the material quickly, hoping that we'd remember what we'd learned during the semes- ter. On the morning of the exam we all crowded at the gym doors, wait- ing for tests to begin. Tense, ner- vous laughter and last-minute study- ing were sprinkled throughout the group. Many of us had a lot resting on these tests, as our averages fell on the boarderline between letter grades. But whether we were ready or not, there was no backing out. The doors opened and we filed into the gym. GETTING IT ALL TOGETHER, Gary Cuthbert brainstorms before beginning his English 102 final. Majoring in liberal arts, he said that he'd enjoyed this course which was taught by Vaughn Copey. AFTER THE FIRST HOUR, crowds begin to thin as students finish their tests.

Whether we wanted to save money or spend it, the businesses of Auburn and its surround- ing communities helped us do it. We dined out, hung out, and went cruisin' 'n boozin'. We went shopping and found crazy just-for-fun things as well as necessities. Although the construc- tion that was usually underway caused detours, we always found what we needed to make the year complete. ll look Rl ces?
