Dedicated to the Senior Class of 1975 Have you ever realized how hard it would be to leave St. Ed’s for a different college? Why do so many graduates stay in Austin? How come one hears complaints so often about tuition yet we stay around and pay it. There is definitely something at St. Ed’s. Not just one thing, but a conglomeration of things. Something makes us keep on returning year after year, dollar after dollar. But what is it? Pll relate memories that I have, and many other Seniors share, which I think may be why S.E.U. has that magnetism that we all love. I’m going to go back through four years to a time in which St. Ed’s was not like it is now, to a time only we seniors will remember ... when there was no theater, only a hill covered with weeds... when Andre Hall was a dorm... when there was a Frat House, Dunstan Shack, and a union which was eternally “hopping”? Remember .. . playing basketball in the Women’s gym... drinking beer at the baseball games on St. Patrick’s Day . . . races around the track with the campus cops... when there was no sidewalk on the hill from East Hall, so we walked up on the street ... the famous grotto “services” ...the slave auction...the first annual North- South Weekend ... when everyone lived on-campus and apartments were for older people...and the dorms, those damn dorms... strict rules, no air-conditioning, no privacy, community restrooms, and the food in the cafe. Remember pulling the fire-alarms . . . the gas leak by East Hall... the banana ... toothpaste, and egg fights in the halls... the X-list of Teresa Hall . . . being campused in East, 11:00 curfew and padlocks on the doors? Remember the panty-raid in East, and calling the T.V. station to attend the ruckus . . . skating down Premont Hall, the ‘Wild Bunch” on second floor, the “Cool Guys” of Andre Hall, the parties, the never-ending parties . .. when Spring Weekend Dance was held in a tent...the Elk’s Lodge dances, the Party Barn, Fiesta Gardens, the Texas Women’s Federation Bldg ...the °50’s dance...Halloween costume dance... the Letterman’s Club parties, Woodward parties, Saxony parties, Forest Creek parties . . . remember the juke box in the cafe? Also Hills Cafe at 3:00 a.m. and maybe even McDonald’s, just maybe!!! Remember River City Inn on Friday afternoons, Mother Earth every Tuesday night, and The Pizza Place every night (excuse me, Mr. Gatti’s)... Rugby games at Fiesta Gardens... walking through the cemetery on Halloween night ... sneaking into the drive-in! Remember the food fights, when there were ice-cream cones in the cafe ...and the guys rated the girls from 0 to 10 as they filed in? Remember the teams that were... Organized Confusion, Cafeteria Blues, Delta Phlatta Chesttas, Banchy A’s, Sorry Excuse, and Boystown Best ... Kevin O’Connor and S.A.I. as it used to be... when there was a 21 year-old liquor law, and the upperclassmen had to buy our beer for us...short hair on guys... low waisted jeans ...streaking... 24 cent gasoline, 10 cent candy bars, and 1 cent bubble gum ... when there were no Skillerns, no Wards, No Royal Burger, no Pancake House, and no Apartments behind the intramural fields? Remember making the “FR” out of rocks at the entrance of St. Ed’s., and getting poison ivy? And the people, remember all the people who have already left or who you are leaving. Probably won’t ever see some of them again. The people, probably the most important reason for S.E.U. to keep on going. People you will never forget the rest of your life. People who’ve touched you, argued with you, befriended you, dated you, hated you, partied with you. People who have left us for good, Brother George, Mike Coz, Coach Hamilton. Yes, it’s the people who make St. Ed’s; the experiences you have with these people is what really makes S.E.U. We will never forget St. Ed’s, or rather we will never forget the people— Pam de Haas 207
