DGRIVI LIFE Q Bottom: Steve Walter tops the heap during a Yoder first wrestling match. Top: Becky Summers checks for a phone message while Carey Miller lends an ear to Rhonda Unger. T' ecret brothers and sisters, popcorn at midnight, and shower queues characterize life on campus. During the fall trimester, students living in dorms numbered 595, and in winter the number of residents dropped to 533. The drop can be attributed to the larger winter SST groups. Dorm floors allow for a high degree of spontaneity because of the concentration of people nearby. A student might easily round up friends for a crazy night at the Rocky Horror Picture Show or a late night run to Mr. Donut. Another favorite activity in- volves deciding to attend a Monday night two-dollar movie in Elkhart ten minutes

From Good to Better is the Mill Race, a one-and-a- half mile path from the dam to Shanklin Park. Whether used for jogging, cycling, walking or meditating, the peaceful path provides a calm escape from the busy campus. Many GCers find eating places to be attractive hang- outs.

Cheers for Peers ii E f 4' . Hllidwbialaqi' ..1f .. Y' X before it starts. Some juniors and seniors remain to brave yet another year on campus. These hardy souls are lured by college rebates of S50 and S100 per trimester and by the social life found in the dorms. Phil Leaman, a four-year Westlawn veteran stated, By being in the dorm, you seem to know more of what's S. 'iii 4 - -na...-. 1-nga going on. lt's also a good way to meet people. Since many of the activities are spon- taneous, you miss out if you aren't around. Matt Myers, a junior, tried living off- campus fora trimester. I felt so isolated and it was hard to balance shopping, cooking and studying. Above: During hall softball, catcher Phil Mason prepares to snatch the ball in case Ben Stutz- man strikes out.
