So there ' s a mood of make-believe, of escapism, at SCU, which, as I said before, is one very good way to have fun. At the May Faire, students entered into what has become a Santa Clara tradition with more enthusiasm than ever. While guys all over campus promenaded in their girlfriends ' leotards, girls managed somehow to come up with colorfully elaborate Medieval gowns. Combatants bludgeoned each other for sport while magicians and Ye Olde May Faire Players entertained crowds, and everyone scarfed delicious exotic foods until Benson was not even a consideration. It was spring, it was warm, and SCU was in a particularily good mood that day. But Santa Clara in 1979 is not a place where people merely play all day. If the school ' s mood is less troubled by social problems than in years past, its mood is not a whole lot less serious. People simply get serious about different things. They get most serious about their personal endeavors. Some get serious about their GPAs — I wanna get into graduate school — some get serious about their athletics, and some get serious about their art.
