The College Life: winter 13 Although the last two weeks of the first semester are often a period of panic, pleasant distractions lead to procrastination! At the top of the Christ- mas list are finding a tree and decorating it, attending the Candlelight Service and eating the fraternity’s Un- ion’s or Christmas dinner. How often do you encounter Dr. Claude Dierolf serving you eggnog with a smile, Tim Romig carrying your tray, Lynn Klein slicing your bread or Bill Thygeson running to refill your coffee cup? Unfortunately for the cum, snow season is a time not only for finals, but also for snowballs in the fridge, skiing, and traying. In De- cember, cafe trays are at a premium. While the pres- sure is mounting, these ac- tivities pull most from their secret study places to relax and release some tension. Mind-boggling finals can alter the character of the seemingly normal person. For Example, Cedar Crest College, a five-minute drive, a ten-minute walk, becomes a getaway as Muhlenbergers move in with their books, hotpots, toothbrushes, back- packs, etc. The wardrobe of a student at this time is also a bit absurb. It usually in- cludes jeans, sneakers top- siders, no socks maybe clean underwear, and a shirt that was slept in the night before. A food fight was again scheduled during the mid- week of finals. Many stu- dents were sent invitations through the mail; however, Dean LeCount, Lynne Klein, Gail Farnam and var- ious other VIP persons at- tended unannounced. Post-final celebration means something different to each person. It may be screaming, burning books, sleeping, blaring your ste- reo, sitting comatose, play- ing pinball at Georges, star- ing at your bong as it beck- ons and then munching out on a banana sundae in the new General’s Quarters. I At the Christmas dinner, professors and administrators manned the punch bowl, coffee pots, bread boards and soup cauldrons. Rich Ri oli takes a break (above) with Tim Teichmann and Charlotte Baker. On top of all this seasonal havoc, falls the hypnotizing snow. The Center for the Arts, the chapel and even the library take on a mystic beauty in their robes of white fluff. We leave tin- seled trees, decorated doors and friends to spend the holidays at home. - Priscilla Halliwell DID YOU RETURN YOUR TRAY TODAY?
