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.

Weekend Activities Hear and far Friday. 3 p.m. Suddenly Westminster is transformed into a new place. Tempo is up, students are smiling and the mood has changed from academic to social. Why? The weekend is here, of course. We all know that weekends were made for . . . good times with good friends. Weekends were made for escaping to the vast myste- rious world known as off- campus. Many students abandon the thrill of cam- pus life for a few days as they head down the high- ways on Friday afternoons. It may be to visit a good friend at another university. Or it may be to go home and catch up on the local news. It may be to spend some quiet hours with that special someone. Or it may be a road trip with a few friends to absorb a cultural urban scene. The opportu- nities are endless once that loaded down car leaves a Westminster parking lot. Weekends were also made for staying on cam- pus and living the colle- giate life. There are usually several things to do on any given weekend. Friday after- noons see many students at happy hours as they blend with the working crowd while eating free food. Or if you stay on cam- pus there s always a small party to be found like a Fri- day madness. Whether it ' s dancing or playing pool at a fraternity house, seeing a movie in Orr or a local theater, rent- ing a VCR and movies with friends, or just getting to- gether with a few close friends, Westminster offers its space. Ho matter what the activi- ty planned, the place gone or the friends, one thing is definite . . . weekends at Westminster were made for good times, good fun and good friends.
