Study breaks find students actively engaged in heated discussions. First in line, the only way to get warm food. NOON . . . Umbrellas hastily open as a mid-day shower suddenly drenches the campus — why can ' t we have just one nice day? . . . but the monsoon season drags on, and on, and on. Stand in line for lunch — spend halj your life standing in line . . . maybe they ' ll serve something I like for a change — -Jat charge — well, I ' ll be, a new way to serve hanburger, or is it mystery meat? Prepare for afternoon classes and labs — should have done it last night. Saturday noon, when the early birds make it to the Stadium to watch the Devils in pre-game warm-ups, to save seats for Bill and Sue, Bob and Jean, Jerry and DeeDee . . . why couldn ' t they get here themselves No rain today . . . unbelieveable. Med-students eating, chatting, studying on the Hospital steps . . . golf bags being dusted— just going to hit some off the tee . . . or off to P.E. . . . speedball, volleyball, tennis, wrestling, what won ' t they think up next? Sunday noon . . . the church croivd letting out, stiff-looking suits and dresses being swapped for something more comfortable . . . an afternoon in Sarah ' s Gardens, or a drive in the country.

East dorms hold clumps of bridge fans, squeezing in a rubber before sixth period, or adding another few rows to the current sweater . . . Chatter, discussions, a time to read, ' ' Life; ' ' ' Time; ' Sports Illustrated; ' Playboy; ' Mad; ' or finish the Sunday Times Crossword Puzzle. Then classes again . . . longer-than-usual afternoon variety (so hard to stay awake.) But it ' s worth it, having a class only twice a week — Fridays and Saturdays are that much better. Long hours in engineering labs . . . and outside, stu- dents and transits dot the lawn in a fury of surveying . . . o, physics, and chemistry labs- peculiar odors of sulphur or formaldehyde, miscroscopes and squinting eyes, original drawings, lab reports . . . The art studio . . . aroma of paints and turpentine . . . the struggle to capture a fleeting inspiration . . . the amazing variety of interpretations of a single subject . . . And language labs . . . earphones, muddle, garbled sounds flow much too quickly- another half -hour gone.
