Of Living On Your Own • • Cooking: Now, weekend trips home may be the only good meals you get while attending college. Laundry: Laundry is the biggest major pain of college life. It ' s not like home where mom did your wash every day. For many students, wash day arrives only after you ' re down to the last pair of un- derwear. Vacuuming: Once those lUP dust balls bounce across the floor, you know it ' s time to exchange your I-card for a sweep- er. Calling: Money is something you can never have enough of at college. Ten dol- lars is so easily spent. A quick telephone call home assures you that money will be placed in your checking account tomor- row. MM 14

Of Classes . . . Oak Grove: Your watch says 1:05 pm. Your late again for class as you dash through campus and up the steps of Leonard Hall. Girls on Bench: Fifteen minute breaks between classes allow you the time for a quick coke and the chance to chat with your friends. Girl Alone: After a full day ' s worth of classes it ' s nice to kick back and relax for a while, contemplate the world, and for- get temporarily about all your home- work. 13

Aside from classes and studying, college life of- fers invaluable experiences — challenges — that help you become initiated into the real world of learning how to do non-academic things all by yourself. These are the simple, daily chores of ev- eryday living. And part of this living on your own at lUP is learning to be yourself. Your personality takes on a mature form. Through these learning exper- iences of all kinds, you discover your identity, your wants and needs, your goals.
