Living In Northeast Shh ... if you walk through Northeast you must be quiet. Party, What party? Eat at Basics -- and be different! Me? Only engineers live there? The truth is that the Northeast area prides itself on being a small living community of nine dorms built around a quadrangle of grass ---a quad that becomes a mirage of volleyball players, frisbee throwers, sun worshippers, and baseball tossers in the springtime. During the fall semester, area dorms welcome Freshmen, plan barbeques, and throw dorm parties. As winter slowly creeps in, students slide down the snow-filled hills in front of Thatcher on sleds (well, ok --- DC trays . . .). NEWSFLASH Northeast challenges Southwest to snowball fight in quad With the spring semester comes tradition — Crabtree ' s annual Academy Awards, Leach Semi-Formal, Thatcher ' s Golf Open, Lewis picnic, and of course, Northeast Area Quad Day. But more than events, the sacrificing of grades takes precedence while worshipping in the sun. A cacophony of sound envelops the Quad as stereos blast in a war of the radio stations. Thus, the quad becomes a mini beach — minus the waves. A strong sense of community can be witnessed here in Northeast. Many students share a loyalty to their dorm, or a loyalty to the members on their floor. Whether it be sitting together in a particular spot for dinner at Barracks or choosing teams for basketball, this sense of friendship persists. Even yelling matches are eventful and full of spirit. But keep in mind that Crabtree people do not have to yell -- they just party together outside on the veranda ' til the wee hours of the night. The students who live in Northeast are serious about their studies. A popular place to do homework is in Grad Research because of its close proximity. Oh yes, many Engineering students can be found in Northeast, but students with other majors do exist here! Many dorms in the area stress social awareness, friendship, and group activity. It is said that good things come in small packages. If this is true, then I have enjoyed my three year home-away-from- home in Northeast, the SMALL dorm area. It may be quieter here, but one is never lonely. And when a battle between the dorms arises as to who rules the quad, perhaps the answercan be found that all in Northeast share the quad. Equally.
