DESALES One ofthe USDdormitories isDeSalesHall. Housing most ofthe freshmenguys, itis divided into twoparts; anEast andaWest side. Likemost dorms, DeSaleshas many events.Among the more popular activities are: yelling, screaming,and complaining, which can be heard at all hours of the day and night. Most of the commotion occurs while everyone is trying to get to sleep, thereforemany DeSales freshmen rarely make it to their eight o'clock class. Although the rooms are not very large, theyare comfortable and after afew weeks intothe semester they acquireunique characteristics. Posters adorn the walls inan attempt to form anew kind of wallpaper. The life-sustaining refrigerators, microwaves, stereos, and t.v.'sclutter the rooms. Living in DeSales isnever boring. You meetmany new people and it is easy to get involved with various activities. The locationof DeSales isgoodbecause it isnear thebookstore and the snack bar.However, the disadvantages are the distant walks to the girls' dorms, or tothe parking lot of thesports center. There­ fore, physical fitness is a requisite forliving inDeSales. In retrospect, the wide variety of guysand their un­ usual, yet humorous personalities, is what makes othersenjoy visitingDeSales and formsagreat experi­ ence for thefreshmen guys. CAMINO/FOUNDERS From orientation, to fratparties, torush, to holidays and finals, the girlsof Camino/FoundersHalls were en­ thusiastic and out for a great time all year long. On the weeknights, the smell of fresh, hotpopcorn filled the corridors. Delivery boys were seen roaming the hallscarrying boxes of steaminghot pizzas.It was obvious if any studying was needed to be done, it was not done in these dorms. Fridays and Saturdayswere the most active and hyper times, as the sound of hairdryers rang through thehallsandsongs of popular groupswereblaringon stereos. Weekends promised the best of times as memories were created which will never be forgotten. The residents of Camino/Founders worked hard and played hard as well. Like typical freshmen girls, they enjoyedeach others company andmade dorm life a fun and exciting experience.

There is a real trick to finding a quiet place in the sun.

Oh, the responsibilitiesof college life!
