igfoot Sighted At Highacres
Tall, dark, and not-so
handsome would be one way to
describe what was seen by
several Highacres students on
the evening of April 13 near
the campus tennis courts.
"We were coming from the
fireline, past the gym and
noticed this really foul
smell. About half-way down the
service road we heard alot
of noise behind us, like some
thing was running through the
woods. When we turned around,
it was just sorta' there
standing by the gate across
the road," recalled one of
the students.
"I would say it was
about eight or nine feet tall
and really black," said
another witness. After a couple
of seconds it ran •'nto the

taking huge strides. We didn't
bother chasing it because we
weren't exactly sure what it

it was no shadow," another

So indicates the results
of a national attitude survey
conducted by the American Coun
cil on Education and the Uni
versity of California at Los
Angeles. The survey was ad
ministered to 315 first year
students at Highacres as part
of a University-wide survey.
The two most important
goals for men were becoming an
authority in their field and
being well-off financially.
However, these goals were rank
ed fifth and seventh, respect
ively, by women. The first
choice of women, helping others
in difficulty, ranked fifth
among men.
A large percentage of men
and women felt it important to
raise a family and develop a
philosophy of life. Women plac

fourth, whereas men's responses
were reversed, placing family

Both men and women placed ob

colleagues in fifth position.
