It just depends on where your interests lie. Whether you're a jock frat type, a preppie, a straight away, a freak, a gay, an intellect, a dis- coer, a normal, or a combination of two or more of these, there is something in a Macon night to please just about everyone. Right? Wrong. The general consensus among Mercer students is that Macon after dark, especially on weekends, is somewhat dull. And this is basical- ly true. Maybe that's why we had such a diffi- cult time coming up with pictures for this dou- ble-page spread. But let's not be too harsh and cruel to Ma- con, for there really is something for everyone. It's just that these somethings are offered in limited quantities. Perhaps O'Leary's (Mulies to many) is the most common and well-known of the drinking places, If it weren't for Mercer, Mulies more than likely wouldn't exist. It is the prototype college bar, a genuine hangout. If that isn't your scene, try the Cottage. Not quite as popular, but known campus-wide for its quality musical entertainment. Other favor- ite night spots include The Rookery (low-key, natural wood effect), flaming Sally's (hardcore disco), and the Riverfront (Pick-Up City)1. Late-night jaunts for doughnuts, chicken, or hamburgers after four Hours of brutal studying are about as common at Mercer as broken washing machines. It is for this reason, when we get the midnight munchies, that places such as K rystal, Shakey's, Wendy's and Krispy Kreme exist. Not only is the appetite satisfied with solid junk food, but these trips also serve as excellent study breaks. It is not all uncommon to catch students at these type places after dark, mid-week or weekend. At this point search for night life in Macon becomes a bit difficult. Of course movies are ever popular, but where do you go when the film is over? Roller skating? Putt-putt golf? How about the Library! a 10

Dorm Life: A Break From The Monotony Dorm life is an integral part of the college experience. It is without doubt a unique adven- lure. The decorative decors of various dwell- ings range in style from something akin to the Sistene Chapel to Early American Slum. Hours are kissed good-bye in nightly breeze sessions. At the most inappropriate times, the lad up- stairs is dancing with his golf spikes and a bas- ketball. You're rudely awakened by your friend's addition of a bucket of cold water to a winter shower. The instigator of the 2 am fire drills should be shot. Fire extinguisher fights break the monotony. An occasional streaker is seen from room to shower. Doorless stalls make privacy non-existent. Unmade beds and a mid-floor laundry pile seem permananet at times. Why can't the morning mirror lie occa- sionally? Hail meetings show that everyone has a sense of humor, no matter how warped. Your roommate's snoring is tolerated because your shortcomings outweigh his nasal problem. You begin to face the fact that your cracker box palace is the springboard for your day and a welcomed nightly resting place, (even if your bed is short sheeted). Is not dorm life a subject of envy?
