Scarecrows, Dorothys and other characters
from the “Wizard of Oz” followed the yellow
brick road to the MSC All-Nite Fair Friday
night.
Fifty-seven campus organizations partici
pated in the fair, which lasted until 3 a.m. at
the Memorial Student Center.
One of the many booths was “Smash Mr.
Bill.” Customers could smash clay Mr. Bills
with various torture tools.
The Math Club’s Black Jack booth drew
heavy crowds, as did the face-painting booth
sponsored by Free University and the Arts
Committee.
Organizations paid $15 for renting booth
space but got $10 back. The other five went
toward entertainment and other costs of the
fair.
Tickets for the booths were 10 cents. Orga
nizations turned their collected tickets in to
the MSC All-Nite Fair chairman and were
reimbursed.
Anne Windhager, All-Nite Fair Chairman,
said, “We’ve been working on this since last
spring. We had to hire extra security to work
during the fair, had to find and hire entertain
ment and find people to help.”
Entertainment at the fair was hypnotist Tom
Deluca and magician “The Amazing
Jonathan.”
During his second show, Deluca took volun
teers from the audience and hypnotized them.
He entertained the audience by magnetizing
the volunteers’ lips, causing them to meet in a
passionate kiss. He also made them pretend to
be race car drivers who wrecked.
Student reactions to the fair ranged from
boredom to excitement.
“I liked it; it was my first time. I enjoyed it
because I worked at one of the booths,” said
Peggy Yamasak, a freshman biomedical major.
“I was there from 8 until it was almost closing
time.”
Another student said the fair wasn’t quite
what he expected and was a little disappointed.
“I just don’t think it’s all that great,” said
George Mankey, a freshman engineering ma
jor. “I don’t know if I’ll make it next year.”
Off-campus living program to be held
By KITTY FRALEY
Battalion Reporter
Students often have questions
about the transition between liv
ing on campus and living off cam
pus, but they don’t know where to
get help.
The Off-Campus Center and
Residence Hall Association are co
sponsoring a program on housing
Tuesday at 7 p.m. in 225 Harring
ton Tower. The meeting is open to
anyone.
The program is designed to
answer questions that students
have about off-campus living, said
Jan Winniford, coordinator of the
Off-Campus Center.
“Since the Student Affairs
Committee voted in early Febru
ary that fifth-year seniors and gra
duate students can no longer live
on campus after this semester,
they are the population that we
are aiming for,” she said.
“We’re going to run this prog
ram similar to the way we run our
orientation programs,” Winniford
said.
The fifth-year seniors and gra
duate students will form a sepa
rate group from the other stu
dents, she said, because the fifth-
year seniors and graduate stu
dents may have different experi
ences and topics to discuss.
The format of the program will
be informal discussions of prob
lems that students may encounter
when living off campus. Student
workers from the Off-Campus
Center who have lived on campus
and moved off campus will discuss
some of their personal experi-
“We want to discuss a series of
things the students need to know
now so that they can be planning
ahead,” Winniford said. “This ses
sion should be one where students
can relate experiences while hav
ing questions answered.”
The Off-Campus Center, in the
Department of Student Affairs,
was created to inform students of
problems of off-campus living,
Winniford said.
The Center provides a variety
of services and programs to stu
dents, including a listing of apart
ment and housing vacancies, a
roommate locator service, room
mate counseling, a car pool refer
ral service.
