rm Tined ' How Are You? Westminster College, resembling most other Institutions, has its limitations. One thing most Westminster students have experienced at one time or another is being caught doing something that results in a fine. The monetary fee for fines ranges anywhere from 25 to $25, depending on the severity of the crime. The reasons for being fined are unlimited. Getting locked out of a room, having candles lit, not having fire proof curtains, or going out the wrong door at the wrong time all can lead to a fine. Many students risk getting fined for taking the screens out of their windows. (Perhaps to let in a member of the opposite sex?) The $2.50 fine for this offense beats the $10 fine for breaking visitation hours. Although anxious to escape dorm life before break, students must remember to unplug cords, defrost the refrigerator, lock the windows and door and empty all garbage cans. Failure to do any one of these rules will result in a $5 fine per occupant. The penalty for having alchoholic beverages on campus is more severe. This fine can range from $10 to $25 and may include work hours. (Students are oft;en seen raking leaves.) The reasons for receiving fines are numerous. Many charges seem trivial while others are necessary. However, the idea of being fined for such offenses does not seem to be a ' fine ' resolution to many Westminster students. Right: Todd Knaus could be pay- ing a $2.50 fine if he tal es another step. Below: Joe Callahan takes an ille- gal short cut to Browne.

Westminsters Four Food Groups What exactly do Westmin- ster College students eat? From the most casual ob- servations, students in the dorms consume everything from plain rice cakes to ex- tensive Chinese meals con- cocted in a variety of hot- pots. Most students; however, opt to eat at the newly renovated SAGA. General consensus claims that SAGA ' S face lift is an immense success. Famished, students feast on the ever popular Monte Cristo sandwiches to the famous Turkey Tetrazini. If the entrees aren ' t appeal- ing, the sandwich and salad bars are popular alternatives. If SAGA just doesn ' t seem appetizing, students find themselves rushing to the nearest phone to call Pri- ma ' s or Domino ' s. Their ef- forts are rewarded with fan- tastic pizza which can also serve as breakfast the fol- lowing day. Perhaps the hunger pangs are weak, but not intense. A snack is then in order. Onion rings or fried mushrooms from the tub hit the spot. Occasion- ally, a sweet tooth will en- courage a raid from Den Vend machines, which offer all types of candy. There- fore, the four food groups: soda, chocolate, fried foods and pizza are all equally represented on and off campus. 22 Eating After finishing a Domino ' s pizza, Barbara Torbes puts the final two freshmen question who touches on her salad, should get the last piece of pepperoni.
