There arc two views to everything. There are three views to the dining hull. The kitchen has one, the waitresses have one. and the girls being served have another. Family style meals require cooperation from everyone. They are a little more trouble to serve, but they are a Radford tradition. A leisurely stroll down the marble steps, exchanging the evening’s plans and best wishes for tomorrows test as you go; finding your coat, muffling up against the customary wind, then the Crcat Divide as, once again, the dorm wins you back from the dining hall.

Every act conected with meals becomes a part of a solemn ritual: the hanging of coats upon their fettered hangers; the long wait in a long line; or the mad dash of the nearly late; the apology for coming late; the scouts who come first to stake a claim. If you really want to discover the personality of a campus, go to its dining hall. Early comers spot their tables, get set for the invitation in, discuss the day’s triumphs and the predictions for the morrow. They also checked their mail early, before the crowd began to swarm about the boxes.
