- V Back to the basics . . . The first thing one does when returning to school is quickly dismiss the parents and unpack — this will leave plenty of time for socializing and catching up on the three months that have separat- ed you from your classmates. Then, there is the conventional and routine HUG, HUG, KISS, KISS sort of thing to renew old acquaintances. Finally, someone says, It ' s 4:30, time to eat. The strongest feeling of deja vu that you have ever experienced over- takes you. Just as the pleasing memory of mom ' s cooking begins to seep into all that is organic in your person, it dawns on you . . . The alarm clock triggers (7:45am, next morning). Registra- tion! With the most eagerness that one can physically muscle up at this hour of the morning, you embark to Thomas Business Building to find yet another forgotten experience — FORMS, FORMS, FORMS! Then, as one waits in line before continuing on to again wait in line, you start to wonder what ' s going on at the homefront — shopping, T.V., football. Then one again remembers The alarm clock triggers (7:45am, next morning). No time for breakfast — late for class! E = mc-; supply, demand; War of 1812 — as you sit and listen to a professor who, if able to bottle and market his lectures, could solve the world ' s insomnia problems, you are again remi nded . . . THE COLLEGE EXPERIENCE! It is amazing how the average college student envisions his or her college experience. The idea of what one subjects himself to in the name of this creature hidden under the guise of higher education is frightening and beyond conscious thought. Why do students do it? Is it worth the agony? It is these and other questions that the 1 987- 88 CRUSADER addresses. So, for now, sit back, relax, and ponder your own college experience as we embark upon our mission into the strange, unknown, and unanswerable.
