After supper, students travel to Van Persum for a three-hour night class, to the library for a few hours of research, study, or con- versation, or perhaps to the gym for participating in or viewing an intramural game.. Finally, the hour of 12:00 mid- night closes Ramaker Library and another typical day at 'North- western. 1 ' A 1, 5 - r X'- li.- , f , kr' my Q-..

' i If you are one of the first students to arrive on campus duringythat last week in August, you will find that you can walk into any 'room on any floor in any dorm and find that each room is as cold, blank, a-nd imper- sonal as the one next door, down the hall, or-across the street in an- other dorm. By the end of the week, you might again stroll from room toroom. This time, however, you will find that no longer are any two rooms alike. In fact, it is impossible' to even find two rooms whichiare,simi.lar. Within a few hours after students move in, each room 'takes on a per- sonality which is as unique as the person who lives there. It. is true that each roomvwill be similar in that it contains some com- mon necessities-a stereo, portable TV, radio, at least two alarm clocks, popcorn' popper, and coffee pot. But here, the similarity ends. Your eye will more than likely fall on the personal possesions which give the room its character. A bur- lap hanging. A Snoopy s poster with the words, l'm Allergic to Mornings, or Friday's Coming. Plaques. Snapshots. Newspaper clippings. A i'fDumb Things I Gotta Do list. A cactus. A dried-up Homecoming corsage. If you are one of the last students to move out in May, you' can again saunter down any empty hallway and peer into impersonal rooms, but as you slam your door in that echoing hall for the last time, you will have the satisfaction of knowing that your room-as-messy or neat, cluttered or spotless, colorful or dull -as it might have been--was distinctly yours- your home away from home. l l 9 i
