Commuter stu- dents were not without their problems either. The co- matose state in which many commuters seemed to wander around the halls was the result of arriving on campus at 6:30am in or- der to park within a rela- tively close distance of Plant Hall. Even at such an early hour, the com- petition was intense and many students could be seen parking in many unusual places. During the first week of school, one student was quoted as saying “I haven’t had this much fun since I rode the bumper cars.” His analogy may have been correct. The close quarters of parking spaces didn’t leave much room for error on the part of the parking individual. The long hike to reach the classrooms was enough of an experience to make students forget about class and go to the game room in the Uni- versity Union. The rush there to get a choice locker in the Student Union was no easy task either. Desparate com- muters could be seen scouting out the lockers which were soon to be vacated, not by their own choice, but by the fierce welding torch of the administration. Stu- dents who did not sign out the lockers found this lesson out the hard way. Many commuters could be found in the commuter lounge on the fourth floor of Plant Hall. Other activities of the commuter could be found around the cam- pus, however paying homage to the great sun god was not a study to be taken by the com- muter. Most residents were left to this task.

For instance, parents cannot comprehend the sheer terror of “the line” during registration. This process is simple for older students, sim- ply wait in line and re- ceive your classes. How- ever to the fresh under- graduate, being told that the class you need is filled is similar to the trauma experienced when told that “Purple Passion” eye color has been discontinued by Clinique. The rush to find substitute classes in the mass confusion leads students to taking classes such as “SAF-T 101 Underwater Safety with Power Tools”. The shock and result- ing stress can be blamed on the few unusual stu- dents who happen to re- ceive all their classes without facing adver- sity. These sneakly indi- viduals have found the way to beat the sys- tem” and have no desire to shore this with the rest of the world. During exams the true evil nature of the student is best exhib- ited. A favorite trick of many is resorting to un- derhanded schemes when facing the “test from hell”. One may tell all their classmates that the exam has been can- celled and then pull an all nighter to best pre- pare and blow the curve. With the acquisition of this vast array knowl- edge, it is important for the college student upon arriving home to always appear to know and have a through under- standing of what is go- ing on, even if they 12 OPENING
