A return to familiar places and the weary trek to the chapel at 11:00. Diffuse clacking of the knitting needles supplements the rustle of papers. The all- night reading room that is filled with smoke and the intermittent chuckle or vital conversation. Evening on Union Hill. The factory spotlight that casts a mourn- ful glance across the shimmering Fox River. The line at Colman food center that grows wider instead of longer. The five minute study break that takes longer than usual because of the new sixteen ounce paper cups. Of coffee. The lonely sound of the chapel chimes on Sunday evening that softly taps your emo- tions. The daily ascent to the top of Main Hall. For a better view. Of tables covered with open books, in corners where conversatiens linger. Carrels in the li- brary placed flush against windows, where on a rainy day one can hear the whisper of passing tires.
