Did you ever wonder what goes
on in that isolated building at the
bottom of the hill—the residence
hall. It’s the home to some 200
freshmen and sophomores on
campus. This year, due to the
high ratio of freshmen to
sophomores, the dorm got off to a
slow start Freshmen, being
unaccustomed to dorm life (after
all, have you ever lived in the
same building with 100 girls
before?), were not
knowledgable about the “tricks
of the trade.” But don’t un
derestimate freshmen, they learn
fast! For example, the freshmen
third floor guys were right there
with the sophomores when the
third floor guys staged their
annual “12 midnight Door-Slam”
(in fact, after a time, the whole
dorm was there). The freshmen
also joined in at the Slave Sale.
Discovering that they could
“buy” a girl to do their
housework, homework, or
laundry didn’t seem to upset any

freshmen. They also all seemed
to enjoy the challenge by the
third floor girls to a water battle
behind the dorm. It became a
battle between almost everyone
in the building filling every
available bucket, dish, and
garbage can with water to dump
on an unsuspecting head. And the
fun goes on.
There are more floor
challenges planned for the near
future. There are also movies in
the lobby on some weekends.
Slave Sales are planned for every
month (if you missed out last
time, just wait!) Halloween is
coming with the annual
“decorate the dorm” fun and
costumes. Guest speakers and
lectures are planned and there is
a religious service every
Saturday night. So, if you think
the dortn is boring, think again. If
you still think it’s boring, DO
SOMETHING ABOUT IT! After
all, it’s what you make it.

Dr. Miller and students from
his two International Un

a field trip to the United Nations
in New York City October 18,

The purpose of the trip to the

Almost a concert review
Since I had already planned to
attend the Pure Prairie League
concert it seemed like a good idea
to do a concert review for the
paper. As it turned out though,
my car broke down Saturday
morning while I was running a
few errands. Now, I had
promised the editor a concert
review, and with my spirits only
slightly dampened, I raised my
thumb skyward and set out for
University Park.
By a hitchhikers timetable I
really didn’t have much time to
get there but with a little luck I
was sure I would make it on time.
From interstate 81 to interstate
80 was one quick ride. Then once
on 1-80 rides became scarce. It
seemed like an eternity standing
there and I was becoming quite
worried. Then a car stopped. It
was a black souped up Mustang.
The driver looked stoned and
his car was filled with empty beer
cans and the odor of marijuana.
include a general tour of the U.N.
and two afternoon briefings on
contemporary internatioanl
affairs.
Dr. Miller said he hopes to fill a
bus of 40 seats with the cross
section of students from his two
classes. There is a possibility of
extra seats on the bus, though
and anyone interested should
contact Dr. Miller in Me 102.

Now the condition of the driver
would not have ordinarily
worried me. What worried me
was the way that he had locked
up his brakes and nearly killed
himself stopping for me. Then he
casually leaned out the window
and waved me to his car as
though nothing had just hap
pened. I was desperate for a ride,
hopped in and we were off. We
were making good time speeding
along at one hundred miles per
hour and I was hardly scared at
all except when we almost
broadsided a tractor trailer and
then later were pulled over by the
state police. As soon as the state
police were done I was on my way
again and with a little luck, I
could still make it in time to see
some of the concert.
My next ride was a kindly old
couple who refused to go over
forty-five, because “too many
people are killed on interstates.”
By this time, I was developing

Oct. 1979, Highacres Collegian—
ulcers. The ride after that was in
a large yellow Cadillac. The
driver was a distinguished
looking man in a business suit.
We had only been moving two
minutes when I decided to take
off my coat. While trying to
release my left arm from its
sleeve a vial shaped container of
mace in my back pocket became
wedged against the seat. The
next thing I knew the mace,
which I carried due to advice
from a worldly friend, emptied
its contents into my back pocket,
onto the seat and throughout the
car. The driver became upset.
Back to hitch hiking and totally
discouraged, I concluded that I
would not be able to catch any of
the concert by now. I turned
around hoping that with a little
luck someone who saw the
concert would pick me up and
give me an idea of what it was
like.
