Photo by belli Stephen Critical cases of the late night munchies were stabilized by Junk Food Treatment --------------by Kelli Stephens---- Alter long hours of studying in Ganser Library or in their rooms college students tend to find themselves craving something to cat. Many MU students used the convenience of the delivery services that local pizza places offer. Cheesesteak strombolis with no onions continued to be a favorite after-dinner snack, not to mention pizzas topped with everything from pepperonis and extra cheese to black olives and anchovies. The SMAC Galley continued making deliveries in the evening this year, adding nachos covered with a hot, spicy cheese sauce to the snack habits of many people afflicted with the munchies. And it is claimed by some that the SMAC makes the finest chocolate milkshakes in existence. Lor those with the inclination to escape the dorm room with all its prying eyes, the SMAC also provided a comfortable atmosphere within a five minute walk from anywhere on campus in which to stop and grab a gui k bite or a lull meal. Of course, old favorites from the good old days back home weren't forgotten. Bonnie Berndt enjoyed settling down with a bowl of strawberry ice cream and pretzels. I vc been eating it since I was a baby, ' claimed Bonnie. And Lisa Kcantillo still enjoyed digging into French onion dip with a pile of nacho chips, or eating potato chips with mayonnaise. I know it sounds weird, but it tastes great! she said. For off-campus students learning to cope with weekly food bills snac k food took the form of those leftovers in the refrigerator like cold chicken, roast beef meat loaf even Chinese food. But everybody at MU this year no matter what their snack time preference, found something somewhere to combat their late night hunger pangs! ■ Student Life 9

Radical changes to Lyle Dining hail gave many of us A New Way Of Life ----------------------by Kim Morris-------- Mew freshmen and transfer students weren t the only ones seeing new things .liter arriving at MU In the fall. Everyone else eating in Lyle Dining Hall was also meeting a change. This hange was Known as the scramble system. What is the scramble system? It is a very new way of life for the diners at Lyle. Instead of standing in a single long line lor all of the food, one chooses between many lines, each of which offers different types of food such as soups, salads, sandwiches. and hot entrees. This system eliminates the need to stand in one long line and enables the diner to pick the food of his choice with relative ease. Mark l.loyd a Junior Computer Science major thinks the new system is great, il you know how to use it. Mark claimed that he had mastered the art ol scrambling.” The secret he says, is not to use a tray. This gives one the appearance ol going lor seconds so he can butt” in line. While Mark and a few others adjusted to this new way of dining, some others felt that there were wrinkles that needed to be worked out. Chris Casey, a sophomore Business major, mentioned that the salad bar should have two sides because there were too many people trying to use everything at once. Despite a few flaws, most students feel that the new system is an improvement over the old style of serving line. It made the Dining Hall atmosphere much more comfortable. One student remarked being in a nice place also makes the food taste better. It is hoped that this new system can also be put into use in Ciordinicr Dining Hall. Students can look forward to its completion sometime in 1987. ■ Thc« student , exercise I heir right to choose from .1 variety of food without waiting In .1 long line.

Morgan Ousting winds and seemingly arctic temperatures failed to chill the hearts of many Millersvllle students on March 7 this year. They had a goal that transcended the physical discomfort of the day. They were hound to Florida to “Raise a Little Ville. The race south was officially begun after the last class of the day. which invariably was occupied by a major test. The road to freedom, for those who drove, was Interstate 95. and on it the quest for sun and fun was joined by vacationers from all along the east coast. Don Johnson and Madonna look-alikes clutched the steering wheels of Porschcs from Massachusetts. Pintos from Maine. Chevies from Virginia, and BMWs from Delaware, all with the determined faces of college students on Spring Break. One of the many hotel catering to student on their spring break.
