When I Have Fears That I May Cease To Be When I have fears that I may cease to be Before my pen has gleaned my teaming brain, Before high-piled books, in charact'ry, Hold like rich garners the full-ripened grain, When I behold, upon the night's starred face, Huge cloudy symbols of a high romance, And think that I may never live to trace Their shadows, with the magic hand of chance, And when I feel - fair creature of an hour! - That I shall never look upon thee more, Never have relish in the faery power Of unreflecting love! -then on the shore Of the wide world I stand alone, and think Till Love and Fame to nothingness do sink. - John Keats Back to Bierce Guzzetta Hall is one of the most colorful buildings during fall semester.

6 Introduction Autumn I I 'si back 10 the good ole wrirerlv cramp! lt's back to bookstore lines, meeting new friends and a new pair of Levi's. Fall is usually full of mixed emotions. Some are anxious to get back into the swing of things, while others feel that they'd like a few more weeks of summer vacation. The fall of '79 enabled us to enjoy the outside due to the warm weather. And as the amount of trees and flow- ers increased on campus, we were able to take in the multitude of autumn colors around us. For the freshmen. it is generally hours of reading Prose Kvlodelx and learning that they only have to look one way when they cross Buchtel Avenue! Of course. there's always time to get together with those we haven't seen for awhile. Catching up with old friends seems to be one of the best reasons to start the first weekend back on Thursday evening! 11's hard to gel away from those summer activities. 11's timefor a break .'

Considering how we suffered through the violent weather of '77 and '78. the winter of '79-'80 let us off fairly easily. Although we had some tempera- tures in the teens. the snow didn't bury us like in years before. There were a few disappointments. however. Skiers lost out due to a little amount of white stuff. and we didn't have any snow days off from classes. For the first time. a Winter Weekend was jointly sponsored to warm up the spirits. IFC-Panhel. ASG. and RHPB got together and planned a dance in The Chuckery. Casino Night and an ice cream eating contest. Although the events didn't gather a lot of people. the groups are planning to increase the par- ticipation for years ahead. When the weather finally broke toward the end of March. it was a good feeling to put the mittens and hats in storage until next year. The Snow Man One must have a mind of winter To regard the frost and the boughs Of the pinetrees crusted with snow: And have been cold a long time To behold thejunipers shagged with ice. The spruces rough in the distant glitter Of the January sung and not to think Of any misery in the sound of the wind. In the sound of a few leaves. Which is the sound of the land Full of the same wind That is blowing in the same bare place For the listener, who listens in the snow, And. nothing himself. beholds Nothing that is not there and the nothing that is.
