So many things make us into what we are-the sights and sounds of the world around us, the varied personalities and opinions of the people we meet. Study is, therefore, not the only path of learn- ing offered in college life. Many times opportunity and whether we take ad- vantage of it has a great influence on our lives, now and in the future.

Through experience. . . Ask anyone on the football team or anyone in the music department or anybody anywhere and they will tell you that experience is the key to true success. It takes experience to be an expert and thutis what many of Living- stonis students want to be-experts. They want to know everything they can about everything and they want to experience anything and everything. But there are those who dont care about anything. They dont care what happens just as long as they arent affected. Until this year the majority of students had this attitude but as the old song says Thereis been some changes made?
