    Knee cap, chicken feeder add
living toufeh to room decor
"Over there is my right knee capj I use
it as a paper weight," said Mark Griffith,
a sophomore living on 7th floor Cather,
as he gave a guided tour of. his room.
"Notice my vice .admiral's f lag. I guess
you could say my room is decorated a la
Navy." , ::-'':'t'.;-;:: 'V
Griffith is just one of the many UNL
residence hall residents who U has
personalized his room v ; ' .
He pointed to a garbage can which
belonged to 7th floor..v ; : .:
"A couple of guys and h take the
garbage cans into dur rooms, otherwise
they get locked -up on. weekends,
Everyone comes in and uses it," he
Said. ; :-: .' ' '
He said he plans to wood panel one
corner of his room later this year.1
Generally, students interviewed said
they brought extra lighting with them to
school because they thought their
rooms were too gloomy.
Others bunked their beds to conserve
space.
"I haven't had real good luck with my
plants it's too dry up here," said
Vance Knudson, Cather 809. Terrariums
hang from the ceiling and line the
bookshelves in his single room'. A
chicken feeder sets on the top of one
bookcase, fiNed with more small plants.
"I brought my own bed, too,! said
Knudson, "because the others are too
Z lumpy." The agriculture major put his
mattress in the upper bunk of a bunk
frame, leaving the lower mattress out to
make a study area.
Knudson hung two hooks on the
bulletin board, crossed a bar over them
and suspended a plant from the bar.
''Can you believe I bought this G.E.
radio cabinet for $1 .50?" asked Neihardt
Residential Center resident Carl Cooper.
"Of course, I had to refinish it."
, Cooper's room decor includes a
1 00-year-old rocking chair he bought for
$1 and refinished and a plant-filled
f spice rack which sets on the ventilator.
A cabinet in the corner of Cooper's
room houses old pop and ink bottles.
' One small bottle, turned purple with age
and sun exposure, dates back to the
1880's, Cooper said.
' Sheila Rocha taped - patterned gift
wrap paper to the walls of Abel 313. A
black velvet Mexican sombrero hangs
on the wall.
"See that bookcase?" Rocha asked.
"Some neighborhood boys in North
Omaha made it for me this summer,"
she said. The bookcase functions as a
divider, separating Rocha's study area
from her bed.
"It doesn't cost that much to decorate
a room," Rocha said..
"I think it's worth it to have the things
around me that reflect how I feel. With
my room decorated this way, I can feel
:' at home,?, she' -said . '. &:-ifZJ. try
