Your 9 o'clock pro- fessor holds class late and you've got to hike all the way across cam- pus to get to your 10 o'clock call just so the professor can start early - without you. Distances on campus are not a hard-hitting issue burning on the minds of socially conscious and con- cerned students, but it is an issue that student's face daily - often many times. Su pose this 9 o'clock class in the P above scenerio was held at Agricul- ture North - one of those buildings past the UK Medical Center for those of you whose concept of campus ends at the biology building. And suppose your 10 o'clock class is held in the classroom building. Now if Dr. Late teaches the 9 o'clock class and assistant professor Early teaches the 10 o'clock class and you've got all that distance between the Ag college and the classroom building to cover in, let's say, 5 minutes, how do you propose to make it on time? Skateboard, helicopter, flying car- pet - oh no, you hoof it twalkl. And just how many pavement pounding and grass mangling steps do you take on your journey? One thousand, eight hundred and fifty- eight or 1,858. Uournalistic style re- quires that I write out a number that occurs at the beginning of the sen- tence.D My suggestion: find a short, short-cut. Now consider the possibility of this situation. You have a big mac attack yet live on south campus and don't have a car to drive to McDonald's lo- cated off North Campus - so, of course, you walk. continued on page 12 Student Life Opening .MQ I 1 14.

QAt a moderate pace, you could nearly burn off the calories you consumej Or, you're a commuter and park in the K lot near the stadium. You're running late to class and, therefore, miss the shuttle bus. Instead of wait- ing, you decide to walk. By the time you reach your destination, the edu- cation college, you would have taken 2,637 steps. fLet's hope you wore comfortable shoes.D lf all this talk about distances and steps has you thinking so what'? , just consider how maddening it was to figure this out. Careful planning and only the most precise scientific methods were used so we could bring you this informa- tion. CWe counted it out.l One final thought. Suppose you want a soft drink from a party at a frat house in the six-pack on south campus but live on north campus. lust to satisfy your thirst, you'd have to take 1,795 steps. Now that's mad. Why not just hike over to McDon- ald's - it's only 175 steps for you. Yin- r A-J . QQ- 143 Q N-- i Q 5:6 . ,x. w. 1 x' ., e , -.. H , , R flaw -'x ,.' FF- -'... ,- . - ', 12,0 .
