Time To Learn Students 'Live' for Weekends The weekend offers college students a chance to catch their breath and forget school for a while be- fore plunging into another five-day stretch of classes and homework. Although it is not unusual to find the library semi-crowded on .i Friday or Saturday night, most Southern students :moose to get away from it all -at least for ,v liilc. SIU students like .1 multitude of different ideas about how in escape the books. Because Southern's tpunpus is built on the perimeter of Thompson Woods, students have within walking distance an area where they can picnic, sunbathe, or just be alone. Some students find relaxation in settling down on Saturday night to a good poker game. Still others board the IC, or thumb their way home for some oldtime good times and Mom's peanut butter fudge. 8 l is nt t 5 M 2'e'?,:'-'- 3. .

At SIU, students spend most of their time tackling the work which is necessary for .1 college degree. Each college student, however, has little trouble find- ing some leisure time for diversion from homework to numerous social attivities. Between Carbondale, itself, and the University, students have a variety of places to go ,mtl lose themselves in the crowd. A popular '4.1.h1ki sports event, a University Center rl 'lucy or .1 private party are the most frequented forms ii socializing. The Greeks also sponsor some annual special events, including Teke Ole-Impics, Greek Week, and the Theta Xi Variety Show. Be it a bull session with the girls, a picnic on the presidents lawn, or a weekend movie, most of Southern's students love to desert their studies for some R and R.
