Located close to campus, the College Inn is a fun place to meet for a late night snack or a late night pitcher. (Photo by Lesley Craig) to be N Cahoots. You ' re sure to meet many college students there. No, on second thought, you don ' t want Top 40. Midway Cafe is pretty close to campus and it has a band a couple nights a week. Usually, the Cut-Outs play, although Ned Turner and the Settlers were there last week. If that is really not your style, there are also other places on Beale Street: the Rum Boogie Cafe or the Omni-New Daisy Theatre. But you decide on the Antenna Club on Madison. There is a big- screen TV continuously playing new wave videos and if you ' re lucky, you ' ll catch a good band. Afterwards, your conscience is calling you back to the dorm to resume your studies, lest you be in college until you ' re 90.

Of course, there is always seafood at the Blue Pelican, and since your pocket seems full enough, at least temporarily, you decide on that. But after you eat, there still awaits the decision on where to go next? The VI has long been a favorite with the students, and Faculty Lounge is really busy even though it ' s under new ownership ( Pop Roberts is no longer there). How about Newby ' s?
