24 And, of course, along with all the happy careless freedom come the responsibilities that commencement speakers warned us about with wagging heads. So there really are things you have to do to live the good life, after all. We have all probably been surprised a bit to make this discovery. If you are going to depend on your own cooking you may decide to learn to cook passably and cheaply. Ifyou want to have your own furniture, you may have to learn to like what you can buy for ten bucks on 63rd Street. You may find out thaL maid service gone. there are some kinds of mess that you will want to spend effort cleaning up. The phone bill must be paid; the landlord must be kept happy. Ir: loco par- enris is no longer there to give you that slight consideration for your crimes against man and nature: if you do get bust- ed, it will in all probability be the police! not the resident head. Apartment life offers you the chance to live as you wish moderated by the costs ofyour wishes. More and more aspects ofyour life are serious; up to you. It is line to live with people ofyour own choosing. But dorm life insulates you from the worst as well as the best of other people y- after all, you aren,t really living with them. In an apartment you are. The best of friendships will see con- siderable adjustment on both sides. And it is often surpris- ing, in retrospect, how many strangers you will have lived iavith. Apartment life is a life of entanglements, good and bad, the hardest life a student can lead; it is force-fed instruction from the day you sign the lease. But then, you have to learn.

Apartment life is. perhaps the mest desired living arrangement for the student body. Many move in, and few move out. The reason is obvious: freedom. Freedom to have your own furniture in your own arrangement. Freedom to suffer under your own cooking rather than someone elseis; to eat food when you want to eat it. Free- dom to live with. and avoid whom you want to avoid. The freedom, maybe to smoke pot or invite your girl over for the night. The freedom to go to hell in your own handbasket. The will may not be there, but the option is. There are other, subtler, freedoms involved: luxuries, in a way. Stand- ing on your own back porch. trying to find the Big Dipper; leaving the ring on the bathtub until you feel like cleaning it oil ; painting a mural on the wall of your room; being able to have guests in for dinner and let them stay for a month. No guards at the door if you come home late, no maids to mess up your careful disor- der. IFS rather like having your own home. 23
