HOT SPOTS Where do you head when you have no place to go? the hill? the quad? or just back to the room: Besides providing a home for our webbed- footed frler ds, New- man Lake also offers a spot for relaxing away from the hustle and bustle of campus. ■.f .iJL iMi Coleman I Music blared out from the Warren Campus Center patio. Swarms of students searched for their lunch dates at the Shroom, We hang out at the mushroom to look at people and scope, Sophomore Beth Witherspoon says. The hill was covered with lounging students who, having donned their shades, scoped the passers by. It ' s sunny and it ' s a perfect escape from class in the middle of the day, says Junior Colleen O ' Meara of the hill. Fris- bees soared across the Quad as strains of The Cure lofted out of Ashby. The sun shone down on students who were studying out in the fresh air. Couples settled down on blankets under the weeping willow trees by Newman Lake. All over the campus, students hung out. Before class, after class, and some- times even during class if the sun was out, so were the students. From playing on the basketball courts in the Village to sunning on the bleachers to attend- ing the sporting event of the day, from the WCC airport lounge to the lobby of Carrier Library, there was never a dull moment. The P.O. ' s - where everyone went to clear the dust out of their boxes since mailflow ended Freshman year- was an- other popular meeting spot. The administration, reacting to the student population ' s desire to interact socially and hong out, built a courtyard in front of the library at the beginning of the year. The courtyard provided yet another location where students could be found passing time with friends. Junior Helen Bae says, When I ' m on the Quad just playing frisbee or some- thing, I always see someone I know. There ' s a closeness that I ' ve never ex- perienced before, there ' s always some- one there. by Linda Bralnin Spactators line the shore of Newman Lake as they cheer on their counterparts at the boat race. 1 Zanettl The Football Stadium: High Noon. Although no game Is scheduled for today, the bleach- ers are filled with sunbathers. Whether It be a picnic or a nap that this couple Is planning, the Quad provides the perfect setting for either. 22 Hot Spots
