expensive. Randy Russell, Olathe senior, lives in the Fellowship of Christian Athletes' house across from Nation Hall on Elm Street and said it's a great place to just kick back and put in a dip. It's fairly inexpensive while it's warm outside, but when it gets cold, the air just comes right through the windows and cracks in the walls. Our gas bills get extremely high. We do turn on the heat but sometimes we still have to crack the ice in the toilet, he laughed. Russell added that it's sometimes real hard to study when you've got on all kinds of coats and sweats. We just huddle up in the living room and watch TV. Sometimes we even make snacks by roasting marshmellows with a blowtorch, he said. —by Kelly Hollstadt HELEN LEE, TAIWAN senior and Jeanette Sexton, Erie sophomore, rent rooms from Sarah Cuthberson, Pitt- sburg resident.

So V Living on a budget Housing costs emphasize money crunch (joing to college often poses the problem of finding somewhere inex- pensive to live that's close to school and, on almost any university campus, there are many such places to choose from: the dorms, a fraternity or sorority house, at home with parents, an apart- ment, a house or a trailer. We ail have to admit that a college student's budget is the main considera- tion in attempting to locate living ac- commodations while attending school. Freshmen at Pittsburg State Univer- sity are required to live on campus in the dorms and eat on either the 10 or 18 meal plan, unless they are from Pitt- sburg and live with their parents. But thir- doesn't limit dorm residents to freshmen only. For me, living in the dorms makes it easier to meet people, and since I'm on the meal plan I don't have to worry about cooking or washing dishes, said Gayle Brown, Leavenworth, sophomore. Living at home is probably the most economic way to live. 'It's not as difficult for me to budget my money, because I don't have to pay those monthly bills like most students. I can spend my money on almost anything, said Bill Sullivan, Pittsburg freshman. Fraternity and sorority houses are probably the most popular types of budgetary housing on campus for up- perclassmen. Most members of greek organizations think that living in frater- nity or sorority houses is cheaper than other places because they pay one price per month which includes electricity, gas, water and trash service and usually some type of meal plan. At the Sigma Sigma Sigma house, there's always someone around. You learn how to get along in a big group and respect other people ' said Sharon Maloney, Prairie Village junior. Even though living in a rental house is considerably more advantageous than most other types of living accom- modations, most students feel it is more TAKING ADVANTAGE OF a few quiet moments around the Fellowship of Christian Athletes' house is Randy Rus- sell, Olathe senior, as he tries to get some studying done, —photo by Brett Roberts o Budget Housing
