A JL. J s the state ' s land grant university WSU has always been out in front when it comes to agricultural studies. New university president Samuel Smith has decided to push the university from this angle. While his predecessor, Glenn Terrell, fought to try to keep this university on the same level with our cross-state rivals when it came to asking for funds. Smith has gone after the help from the point of WSU ' s uniqueness in the state. Smith, himself, has promised to be on the prowl. Not only does he spend the majority of his time traveling and seeking out funds, he has also promised to wander campus, meeting people and finding out what makes WSU tick. a We¥e number one” is the chant oi students at a rally on the CUB mall be¬ fore the homecoming game. Although the Cougar Football team may not be number one, its fans and supporters can certainly be tabbed as top-notch.

Hot dog cookouts are just one of the many activities that go on during foot¬ ball weekends. The actual football game is the highlight of the weekend but many of the other events are just as important —at least to some.

Whether hurrying to class or stopping to chat, most students are on the go. The ten minutes be¬ tween classes sometimes makes it difficult to find time to talk to an ac¬ quaintance. (Gaiy Foster photo) After a long day of clas¬ ses, many students find exercise of one sort or another the best way to relax. Two members of ‘Brief and Decent’ brave the first day of snow to go out and throw the foot¬ ball around. (Mike Anderson photo) I P JL rowling takes place daily on the campus. It starts first thing in the morning when most wake and go looking for some kind of caffeine, knowing it is the only way to make it through the day. Later, food is the main objective as well as a quiet place to relax and study. This is not always as easy as it sounds, especially when the cold weather settles in and everyone is forced inside, crowding the CUB and the libraries. Following an intense day of classes and the long walk home, students seek a comfortable chair and the kind of meal that requires the least amount of work possible. The long walk home for dinner seems that much longer after a long day of classes and studying. Many bridges like this one dot the WSU campus to make crossing busy streets easier.
