If ping pong, pool and bowling got too strenuous, students could wander upstairs to the Quiet Lounge, where Monopoly, Scrabble and card games were in progress. Activities were planned by Cheryl Parman of the Student Activi- ties Office. Thursday evenings were set aside for filmgoers. The movies that drew the biggest crowds were HButch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, hRomeo and Iuliet and HKing Kong.

Along with the usual summer classes, a number of workshops were offered. Topics ranged from camping and canoeing leadership to the French horn workshop. The psychology department offered a two-week workshop on the psychology of human sexuality. The course was taught by Sal Costa, temporary instructor of psychology, who had originally initiated the workshop and had been planning it for several years. It was not a sex education course, he said, b . . . but highly specialized, high quality information which is not ordinarily covered in depth in regular psychology classes. When the campus atmosphere got to be too much, students headed tContinued on page 161 Folk singers provide entertainment at a picnic in Red Barn Park. During the summer. the campus park was nearly as popular as Thousand Hills State Park, and was much closer. 1$ .. '25; 5e$tq1f4 IV E. Vi waif 1233' 4 . A.si.. ..a. ...ir.v . i ' l, ,, ,. - . . .
