OCI DI ERSITY iiby Joe1-- l Cunningham -1 kip grabbed the last beer as I slumped into my chair, my roots growing deeper and deeper into the chair. So what are we gonna do? By this time I was barely hearing those words, much less recognizing who said them. l stared at a flyer somebody slid under my door the day before, but I hadn't found time to pick it up yet. HASUSC PRESENTS Comedy Night. It mustn't be any good because they're only charging two dollars for admission. Besides, Igjust spent three dollars at the Little Prof. But then again, we don't have anything to do. Let's go to Comedy Night! The show began. Slow start. Hey, joe, Skip wants to leave. Wait, just wait a few minutes. Laughter. Applause. What'd he say? I missed it. More laughs. Could it be true were we having fun? The show ended much too soon. We agreed that I had made the ultimate call and we would return to this event called Comedy Night at a later date. On our way out we noticed the flyers ASUSC Presents Social Presentations presents Friday at 8 pm Saturday at I0 pm movie festival concert dance. The next day in the Social Presentations ltdevijations, as the name plate saysj office, Steve Hamilton was coaxing me to go to the coffeehouse that nightg David Pomeranz was singing. The Muscrats were pretty wild last Thursday, so I thought I'd give it a try. Steve and Fritz Hurst have scheduled live entertainment every Monday and Thursday night. Steve says the coffeehouse has the potential to be the social center of Santa Clara the word to kick around the staff is ambience. That's what we want - ambience like February is jazz month. Afternoon movies are popular and Mary Brkich schedules about seven movies a month on Tuesday nights in Daly Science. Pee Wee Herman was cool. Pola tMike Pola, Vice-President of Social Presentationsj did a good job of building us into a cohesive unit at the beginning of the year. SCUnique did homecoming, and Bronco Bust is gonna be awesome this year. We tmy friends and lj thought Wally George was great. The question and answer period was the funniest with Scott Logsdon as the gay, illegal alien, migrant worker to whom George showed his bias. Ultimately what resulted was fun and good times memories that will last for years. ASUSC provided this entertainment right here on campus and all we had to do was show up. Looking back now, I'm glad we did if we didn't, we'd probably still be sitting in my room saying So, what are we gonna do?

AS THE ERCURY RISES by Lisa Richards et your buns out of bed, Richards! Whoever is responsible for waking me up from a glorious sleep on a Saturday morning had better have more than a satisfactory explanation for doing so. Get out of my room right now! I order my two rambunctious roommates. Lisa, the sun's out. 1t's 75 degrees outside and no clouds, screams Annie. 1 don't care how cloudy did you say the sun's out? I ask while quickly scrambling out of my electrically heated blankets. Not wasting a second, I run to the window, brush the curtains aside, and look out over the graveyard view which greets all those who live on the back side of the Plum Tree Apartments. Funny. The flowers on the grave stones look almost happy today. Quickly looking up, I see the reason for their glee - the sun, the wonderful sun is out! Hurry up! Put on your suit, urges Stacey. You don't want to miss the best rays of the day, do you? Annie and I are going to get some Diet Coke at the market. Do you want anything? Yeah, l'm starved. Why don't you get me a burrito-to-go and a large Diet Coke. O.K., we'll meet you down at the pool, reply Annie and Stacey. It's a plan, I answer. See you there! Fifteen minutes later, I'm down the stairs and heading directly il 6 Student Life for the pool area. The sun's brightening rays have completely transformed the atmosphere around the apartment complex. The pathway to the pool, dividing the graveyard from the apartments, looks positively inviting today. It's hard to believe thatjust yesterday I had raced down this pathway with manic paranoia expecting, at any moment, to encounter the jack Torrence character from The Shining, merging from the gloom to do away with me in the most heinous fashion. Sorry, jack. Your days are numbered. I've got nature on my side now. As the pool comes into view, I see my two roommates comfortably sprawled on the chaise lounges strategically arranged to receive maximum exposure to the sun. Well, I see you girls have wasted no time, I remark. Finding a chair nearby, I sit down, take off my cover-up, reach for the suntan oil, and begin to spread it liberally over my fish-white, extremely sun-sensitive skin. Annie and I were just discussing the classes we want to take this spring, says Stacey. We both decided to take 9:00, 10:00, and 11:00 o'clock classes. That way, we'll have the rest of the afternoon to lay out, adds Annie. Sounds perfect, I agree. The coming of spring is never easy on the grades. but what the heck!
