Money, Machines, Mail: Necessities Since the necessities of life require people to eat, study, rest, and converse, students often find them- selves searching for places where these needs can be met. There are various places on and off the P.S.U. campus which students may visit throughout their busy week. Three times a day, students line up for meals at the cafeteria. Usually, though in between meals or after the cafeteria closes, students can be found filling up on hamburgers, fries, and cokes at the Wagon Wheel. If studying prevents a student from leaving his room for a meal, then the Fillin Station can always deliver a steak hoagie to the dorm. Studying calls for quiet areas where music and conversation can ' t be heard. Two places where students seriously interested in learning go are the bound periodicals room in Mary Livermore Library and the Chapel at The House. The periodical room provides students with a classroom atmosphere. The chapel provides more of a home atmosphere. When there is time during the day some P.S.U. students take naps. Many students, tired from a hard day of classes or from too little sleep the night before, fall asleep while watching T.V. or reading an assignment. Besides the dorm room, students can obtain relief from colds and viruses at the infirmary. A student may be required to stay in the infirmary under nurses ' supervision because he needs adequate rest and medicine for an illness. Yet the popular places students seem to frequent the most are the entertaining places. The Student Center is a place for dancing, playing video games, mailing letters, watching television, and a lot of conversing. Quincy ' s provides music and dancing at a discount rate for college students who want to take a break from the school routine. All of these places add an infinite variety of new faces, new personalities and excitement to the social part of a college experience called Student Life.

Then comes the long wait in seemingly endless lines. Above: Stooping and Sticking were prevalent during the weeks of September 6 to 17; parking stickers were issued after classes had begun. Demonstrating the technique, Petri Rekola places a parking sticker on a student vehicle. Bottom left: Planning schedules, meeting with advisors, and waiting in long lines are the beginning steps of registration. Despite all this hard work, sometimes classes close out quickly and students such as Louise Davis and others must adjust their schedules one last time. 15
