“I had to pay for nearly everything, including
car insurance, food and gas. among other things,”
Buffalo said. “It was exhausting.”
Buffalo has been working at the Time Out Sports
Deli in the Student Recreation Center for four years
and said he enjoys work for many reasons.
“I love the atmosphere at the Rec.” Buffalo
said. “1 also get along with the people I work
w ith, so that makes it easy to enjoy my job here.”
Throughout their college years, many students
may find it difficult to cooperate with their bosses
and many of these negative experiences cause the
student to quit their jobs. Fortunately for Buffalo,
his boss has been extremely flexible and patient.
“I get along with my boss so well,” Buffalo said.
“She does a really great job of working with my
schedule to give me just enough hours each w'eek.”
Balancing school, work, family and friends
might be difficult for some students, but for
Buffalo, he said it is simple.
“The management works really hard to work
around our schedules,” Buffalo said. “Especially
if we have tests or something to study for.”
The Rec Center plays hosts to a number of
meets and competitions each semester and Buffalo
said that is the only time when his job is stressful.
“Swim meets are challenging, especially if
you’ve just come from a full day of school ” Buffalo
said. “Serving smoothies to a long line of people
just isn’t what you want to be doing sometimes.”
Thomas Lopez, a senior psychology major,
has been working at the Ag Cafe on West
Campus for six months. Lopez said he enjoys
working there because of the perks he receives as
a student employee.
“We get a free meal everytime we work,” Lopez
said. “You can’t get that anywhere off campus.”

Dylan gets ready to take
on the big screen
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Bob Dylan is in talks to
take on his first major film role in 15 years, a pro
ducer on the project said.
The musician could star in an Intermedia Films
project tentatively titled “Masked and Anonymous,”
said Nigel Sinclair, one of the film’s producers.
“He is very interested in the project.” Sinclair said.
“We’re working out some of the details with him.”
A spokesperson for Dylan did not return a call
seeking comment.
The film, which has been in development for
about a year, would feature Dylan in the role of Jack
Fate, a troubadour who is brought out of prison by his
former manager for one last concert.
It is uncertain whether Dylan would write new
music for the feature. But some old tracks could be
used in a scene where the lead character performs
with his band, Sinclair said.
Shooting is scheduled to being in June.
Dylan’s last starring role came in the 1987
Warner Bros, release Hearts of Fire. He also
costarred in Sam Peckinpah’s 1973 western Pat
Garrett and Billy the Kid.
