As Well As Sun And Pun For Some Students Summer Means Business As U ual As Spring quarter neared the end, Emory students looked forward to one thing - Summer. Summer meant relax- ation, work, or both, but its ultimate meaning was NO SCHOOL. No more of that dreaded Chemistry 2-week syn- drome, no more fetal pig dissections, no more all-nighters for tests or papers with coffee, Tab, or tea. Except for those in summer school. The summer atmosphere is different. For one thing, it's really hot and humid and for those in Gilbert and Thomson, it was dusty from all the gym construction. Academically, summer school also dif- fers. The classes generally are smaller and meet for longer periods of time, usu- ally 1 hour and 15 minutes. Try sitting still and awake for that long, it's not as easy as it seems. The labs meet twice a week, try staring at slides of animal em- bryos for 6 hours a week. Also the pro- fessors are accessible and truly make an attempt to know the students. Why do people attend summer school? There are a variety of reasons ranging from classes like PASCAL or COBOL that are only taught in the sum- mer to getting ahead to catching up to for purely aesthetic reasons . Is there life during summer quarter? Not much activity goes on but campus events exist. Haygood sponsored several parties throughout the quarter. The Emory Summer Theater presented 5 plays. There were public readings by Dr. John Stone fthis year's convocation speakerl, David Huddle, John Engels, El- len Voight, and Allen Weir. The Emory Summer Music Festival featured a differ- ent musical event every Friday. There were of course the UCB films showing such diverse films as The Odd Couple and Up in Smoke. What happened during the quarter? The tennis courts went down in sacrifice for the gym, while that construction stirred up dust storms by Thomson and Gilbert dorms. joggers had to find some- where else to run as the track was also destroyed. Workmen put final touches on the Chapel, preparing it for the year- long dedication. The Toco Hills Bathtub strangler was sighted lurking around Haygood. Dorms were renovated, espe- cially Dobbs Hall which was anticipat- ing the Dobbs Experience. The hustle and bustle of the school year was lack- ing, and a more leisurely pace dominated the campus. - joy Gonzales Clearing land for the new gym, construction crews found it necessary to tear down some of Emory's gorgeous wooded areas. .-.... ff Y - .- 18!Summer ' 2 J. 5 Y- 11-'Sf-ritsif A 'VIP , As i' W' ..x.gN., -. vw - . ,g,,S.-.vs:vf- than ' 4 esrrmflur Gonzales 'Graz

Cd Us 13114 - ll Mud nd Rocks For Future locks The George W. Woodruff Phys- ical Education Center is the most noticeable addition to the Emory campus. Its scheduled completion date of May 1983 will allow many current students to enjoy its facili- ties. The S20 million modern com- plex will accommodate most types of athletic activities. The building will consist of four levels. The rooftop level will in- clude seven tennis courts and a re- creation area. The upper level will house the administration area and classrooms. Additional facilities on this level include a 176 meter track and the Human Performance Labo- ratory. The main entry level will include racquetball and squash courts, varsity locker rooms, weight rooms, and a dance studio. The lower level consists of a 50 me- ter swimming pool and the gymna- sium with seating for 3000 people. In addition, the outdoor area will have a varsity soccer field, an eight lane synthetic track, and an intra- mural playing field. Renovation of older fields is also included in the project. The Physical Education Center will provide many benefits for Emory students. Dr. Clyde Partin, director of the Physical Education department, feels that the Center will attract national champion- ships in areas such as swimming, track, and gymnastics. Dr. Partin attributes the student's increased demand for athletics and Emory's emphasis on the importance of ath- letic participation as the main rea- sons for constructing such a large physical education center. The George W. Woodruff Phys- ical Education Center is an exciting addition to the University that will help improve the quality of life at Emory.
