NU Students Just Can't Get Up'
For Those Sight O'Clock Classes
By AGNES ANDERSON
Staff Writer
"Late again."
' The sleepy-eyed student
stumbles about trying to make
his 8 o'clock class. After get
ting accustomed to sunlight, his
eyes begin to focus. He gath
ers books, papers and pencil and
dashes from building to short
cuts wondering if his lecture
will be worth all his trouble.
"Tonight I'm going to bed
early big day tomorrow," he
thinks.
Why is it that, when students
are younger, it is easy to rise at
the crack of dawn, while now,
There are many dishearten
ing examples of 8 o'clocks. One
of these is getting out of bed
with 10 minutes to spare only
to find out that the class has
been cancelled. The professor

If you're "up in the air" about
your summer plans, why not set
tle for mountain-climbing say in
Estes Park, Colo., or, perhaps, in
Switzerland? Take your pick.

WHAT'S THE USE? . . . It's 8:30 a.m. and the call girl forgot
her. Jody L'Heureux, the sleepy coed tries to make her 8 o'clock,
but to no avail. (Daily Nebraskan Photo.)

nothing awakens them?
There are many available ex
cuses too much studying the
nieht before, a troubled mind
over approaching exam or just
not being able to sleep. This
is hardly believable, however,
when one tries to get up in the
morning.
Of course, there are the ex
ceptional few who have their
alarm-clock minds set for half
an hour before class. These stu
dents are very fortunate and
have no trouble in getting up.
They awaken automatically
each morning without assistance
from their roomates. There is
the chance, however, that their
alarm-clock mind will be run
ning slow for eight o'clocks or
that it won't even bother to go
off.
Hours of peace are wasted
trying to awaken a sound sleep
er. It takes anything from ice
cold water to a hammer to
arouse the difficult ones.
Many houses are bothered
with soft-spoken "call" girls.
One of this type tiptoes into the
room, whispers sweetly into the
sleeper's ear and with much
encouragement on her part, will
give a gentle tap.
An opposite type may fire one
boisterous yell which will delay
the sleeper so that he will spend
the rest of the morning in bed
recovering from shock.
has been attacked with a case
of measles or flu.
Another sad example facing
the late student is rushing into
the building, at 8 o'clock but
finding himself unable to get
into class because the class door
is locked by 8:01.
Some exceptions are the
"e a g e r" freshmen. On the
whole, few freshmen have

The "broken-in" sophomores
and juniors take 8 o'clocks in
their stride, while the case of
the "retired" seniors is a little
different. This "know-the-ropes"
class deserves the extra
minutes' rest that makes them
late. After four years of get
ting up on time, a few minutes
overdue can be excused.
Professors know that 8 o'clock
class missing isn't intentional.
After all, college kids need the
rest they're still growing!

Annual base pay of a second
