GOING MY WAY? A time for study, and a time for play, and a time to wait and wail some more. Waiting on the University shuttle is a daily ritual for many of the dormitory residents. The reactions for waiting on the shuttle have been termed: tiring, exhausting, frustrating, and a damn Shame. It is general consensus that it is not a problem commuting; however, the time spent or wasted waiting could become a bit much for the most tolerant individual. On a sunny day it isn't tooo . . . bad, you can cool-out on the grass (or wall), or mingle with the people until the bus arrives. But, on those not so lovely days when the temperature drops, the rain falls and the hawk blows, the wait on the shuttle could become very trying for even the calmest person. Imagine waiting in the rain relatively dry until the shuttle arrives and then becoming totally drenched when everyone crowds together and lowers their umbrellas at the same time. Imagine patiently waiting on the shuttle for more than an hour, only to be informed that the bus has not run all day. Imagine attending classes all day, working for a few hours, only to leave work and board an over-crowded bus and have to stand for the few miles home. But, let's look at the brighter side of the situation. The shuttle gets you to class (maybe late, but it gets you there), it gives you ample time to copy notes, compare tests, and catch up on the latest T. The most positive response of the shuttle service was, It allows one plenty of time to decide whether or not to go to class, not to mention it is a meeting place for most. If you ever get lonely - Meet you at the BUS STOP - there is always someone there. 21

BUILDING OF DIVERSITY Dr. Armour J. Blackburn was a 1926 graduate of Howard University who served his alma mater for almost thirty years. A stickler for details, Dr. Blackburn believed if something was worth doing, it was worth doing well. He initiated the plans for a center that would bring together the diverse elements of the University community in order to take full advantage of such a center. Under his close supervision, the committee passed through an intensive planning process, drawing on ideas derived from visits to a variety of campus centers throughout the country. Dr. Blackburn unfortunately died in 1970 and was unable to see the realization of his dream. It is only fitting that the center he envisioned and to which he was so dedicated bear his name. The new Armour J. Blackburn University Center includes a five-hundred seat cafeteria, a full service restaurant, and a snack bar called the Punch-Out. The center is equipped with a penthouse ballroom and lounges for relaxing, reading, watching television and socializing. Available for seminars, lectures, workshops, and discussion groups are a variety of meeting rooms and conference rooms, including a 138 seat auditorium and a 74 seat semi-circular forum. Leisure or recreation facilities within the University include pool and ping-pong tables, a music listening room and electronic table games as well as a 12 lane bowling alley. 22
