CAMPUS LIFE '67: The Ira tists, the Apathists and the Yetchers by Robin Jeffrey 1 People who buy annuals do so in order to have 1'5 something to show their grandchildren, something to prove they really were youngg something for posterity, something to savour when the gold has turned to silver and the gorgeous bosom has become a big bust. So, keeping in mind all you people out there in Posterity- Land, let's take a look at what mr it is alleged - was g'Campus Life in 1966-67. ' . .ft , . ,, . . ' sa it nVf HCampus L1fe,t' said one young man of that era, His being iratef' A- L N A K Campus Life,'5 said a young woman of similar vintage is being apathetic? Campus Life? Yetch ! said a third. And perhaps that summed up the political divisions of Campus Life: the Iratists, the Apathists and the Yetchers. The most numerous of the three groups were the .tXpathists, based on a hardcore of education students and comprising the majority of the 3,500 total enrolment. They came, took lecture notes and went home. For them, Uinvolvementi' was going to the SUB for coffee. The second largest group was the Iratists. They were the student politicians tall of whom had read The illalzinlg of the Prc51'1lenlj, the leftists, and the radicals. Involvement was their watchword. They were t'c'onc'erned. They sought universal accessibilityf, a profound and meaningful life experience and talked about Hsorial justice and bourgeois materialismf' Finally, the smallest group was the Yetchers fnot to be ronfust-tl with the l.ec'hers who were much more ntnnt-rousj. Generally third- and fourth-year students, ibm-5 4-xprrsst-cl tontmnpt for lratists, Apathists and lar ultx, talkt-fl about t l'he Piece of Paper, and were intftnt on ugvtting into grad school. ,ka 4 'iff With these divisions outlined, we now can pass on to an examination of some of the Bulwarks of Campus Life. And perhaps the Greatest Bulwark of Them All was the Library. For every student - Iratist, Apathist and Yetcher alike - a visit to the Library was as inevitable and as much to be feared as death itself, although slightly less definitive. Apathists went there to try to study around the peculiar partitioned tables, which were reminiscent of nothing so much as the modesty boards in a girls' shower room. Iratists went there to talk and argue in loud voices, thus annoying the Apathists. And Yetchers went there to scoff at both and use exotic, little-known facilities like the record, xerox, old-book and seminar rooms. Some people even read the books. After the library, in terms of inevitability of use, came the food services in the Student Union Building, Student Services' Centre and Cafeteria. Here, at one time or another, nearly every student stopped to talk,
