Summertime And The After the hectic activity of graduation, the Quad was very beautiful and peace- ful. The grass and trees were green, and the flowers were in full bloom. It was always strange to walk through this tran- quil scene and not see anyone taking ad- vantage of the soft green grass or the late afternoon sun. I found myself on many occasions searching the streets for peo- ple, often with no luck. I was one of the few who stayed close to Emory but didn't go to classes. Friends who did attend classes always talked about the relaxed atmosphere during the summer session. The classes were small enough so that everyone became close, including the professor. However, the major difference be- tween summer and the rest of the school year is the atmosphere. The summer scholars lhigh school seniors attending classes herel lived in Dobbs where a desk lnot normally found during the school yearl checked in all visitors, and also kept the boys on the first floor from seeing the girls on the second floor. Things certainly did change during the summer! Friends who worked at the AMUC actually had time to call me. The post office was actu- ally clean due to the fact that there wer- en't many interoffice notices sent out. If Vincent 28fSummer People Are Missing you wanted to eat on campus though, the only place to go was Cox Hall because Dooley's Den closes during the summer. This depressed many students, faculty, and staff because we all know about Cox Hall food, therefore, the Village restau- rants had many summer school patrons. Although some of the usual campus activities continued throughout the sum- mer, so many of the things we count on and take for granted were gone. UCB still sponsored movies, and the Summer The- ater produced plays. However, the book- store closed on Saturdays, and the AMUC ran on very strange hours - clos- ing at 1O:0O! The atmosphere is very peaceful, but I prefer the hectic conve- niences of everyday school life like cash, ing checks on Saturday, getting the mun- chies at 11:00, and people.

Lil-I Hum l The old Emory taboo of freshman males and females sharing living quarters gradually became history as the 1981 Dobbs Experience spread in 1982 to all the freshman dorms except Means and Longstreet. Separation of the sexes by floor was the norm except for one floor in McTyeire Hall where both girls and guys became neighbours. The coed experience is a major factor Gonzales in adaptation to college life. A feeling of closeness resulted from the daily interac- tion with each other, the gain of mutual respect, and learning to watch for the privacy of others. The closeness ex' tended not only to dorm mates dating but even sparked brother-sister relationships. One dorm, Trimble Hall, initiated a Big and everyone spied, guessed, and await- ed the end of the week. When the identi- ties were revealed, something happened The floors became one big happy fam- ily. Students help each other with home work and personal problems and general- ly interact as siblings.
