bbey women have a way all their own! Their annual B-Bizzare party is an occasion unique to Ab- bey, but fun for the entire campus. This event consists of a party in their large base- ment lounge, and the key is everyone dresses as bizzare as possible and goes to have a wild time. On hot spring days Abbey women have a large itinerary of events in which they can partake in. Of course laying (top): Abbey roomies forever.

he all male Alum- iriru n is i°catec Ljj in the center of campus and is one of the oldest buildings. While walking by this ivy covered structure one can almost feel a sense of history. The men of Alumni are there to remind you that al- though their building came to be during the 1800's, the residents of this dorm are very much up to date. Sounds of rock and new (top-right): Buggs, the second floor mascot. Hey, are pets allowed? (right): What's on the tube Jeff? (above): Tom, you don't live in Alumni, do you? wave music was forever pouring out of open win- dows. And as soon as the nice weather started there was al- ways a game of hacky-sack being played on the grass. This dorm also participat- ed in some indoor sports, such as seeing who could earn the title of top beer cap flinger . Other indoor activities included watching movies in the lounges or just hanging out with the guys in one of the rooms. Residents knew that if there was any studying to be done it would have to be done at the li- brary. Quiet hours were al- most non existent in this building. Alumni Hall is probably one of the most popular dorms on campus. Some of the events which took place in this building will be re- membered by all, both male and female! 20
