ut ove In V Move-In is a project undertaken each year with the sole purpose of situating civilians into .an academic atmosphere. On September 3rd, over 1800 freshman students were subjected to this experience. The very first Move-In experience bestowed upon the eager subjects was a three hour wait of crawling traffic through RlT’s parking lots in the hot sun before the new students could even drop off their luggage. (Top that. People Express!) Additional highlights included lost luggage, saying good-bye to Mom and even more waiting. Relief was fell by the freshly processed student as he confidently strode towards his dorm. Surprise! The diligent student who put up with the stress and toil found himself rewarded with his very own room, complete with two other noisy, smelly and messy residents. Yet, after much negotiation, the new dormie was able to reserve a small corner for himself. No problem dude. Escape and Salvation is here! The key word here is PARTY, folks, and the wildest and craziest were to be had in the fall. Many find this to be essential to sustaining life, and the only way to preserve mental competence 20

ArcJrgx Levy The one thing even»' fortunate RTF student has had the pleasure to experience is the 'RIT line”. The never ending saga of waiting in some sort of line begins with move-in and extends itself through graduation. Time has no bearing on the situation. From the moment you wake up to take a shower until it's time for breakfast at Grades you must lake time out to wait on line. When living in the apartments waiting for the RIT shuttle bus to pick you up at the CAU to bring you home from a long day of academics you must put up with a line. As wc all learn very early in our RIT experience long lines will always be a pari of RIT. ArdtiJtf Lavy 22
