THE GLASS HOUSE
F3y Stephen Wash
The sight of freshmen and their parents mapping
their way through campus-always makes me laugh. The
dorms opened last Wednesday and as far as I can tell,
things haven't changed.
Mom and dad dress in the traditional parent garb: go!:
shirts, khaki shorts, velcro tennies, and a "gone fishm"'
baseball cap. The freshman-plays it cool showing off his
I was at Woodstock" t-shirt
act out the same ritual every fall...walking
aboutten steps in front of mom and dad all over campus.
They have that "independent" strut... when off in the
distance mom is heard yelling, "Honey, don't forget you
can't wash underwear with towels."
Once mpm ancrrjad are back in the mini van headec I
home, its time to go solo. Things may get weird and
confusing. And so, this column is for you, the freshman.
THE DORMS
"By the end of your first year in the dorms you can sum
up the experience as, "It was the best of times, it was the
worst of times." Dorms are the best place to meet people.
Most residents are going through the same thing you a re,
The roommate experience can be
like an episode of "The Real
World."
so you'll make friends fast.
The roommate experience can be like an episode of
"The Real World." It will either be bad: Puck vs. Pedro, or
good: Aaron and l>>minic.
Privacy is a commodity you will be severely lacking,
other than your trip to the bathroom stall, but even then..
Dorm food...rruTtm, mmm good. My only words of
wisdom are avoid the heatlamp burgers and go for the
chocolate chip copkies. Those cookies put Mrs. fields' tQ
shame. ". '
CLASSES
Don't offer anything personal to the class unless your
instructor asks. For example/in the Intro to Psych classes
there's always someone who needs personal counseling,
"I keep having this dream that I'm naked at the supermar¬
ket. It seems so real. Is that some sort of subconscious cry
for help?"
Hello! Lookaround you! No one cares! They want to
take their notes and get out. If you feel an undying need
to express yourself, go on Montel Williams, for crying out
loud.
