Squirrely ...
Continued from p. 1
This season is short-lived; within several' weeks the
new recruits learn the secrets of the trade and become
more discreet members of the university community
But until they break the code of playbg i on
campus and retire their high school letter jackets untS
their five-year class reunion, Joe Freshman provides
enough amusement to ease the pain returning to the'
books. How is this unusual creature distinguished from
the general campus population? Although every specimen
is unique, some generalities can be drawn.
The days of selling elevator passes' to unsuspecting
freshmen may be obsolete, but it is still a common
sight to see baffled freshmen frantically pushing the
button to third floor Oldfather without realizing he needs
a faculty key.
These wide-eyed teenagers are often seen w'anderins
dazedly around campus with an air of forced self
assurance, while all the time their handy-dandy home
made campus map (yes, some even have aerial views') is
tucked discreetly between the covers of their brand new
text books (all frosh buy texts just off the press).
Many freshmen seem to possess the herd instinct -Droves
of whispering 180 year olds band together like a
Blackshirt defensive front when ' crossing campus or
making their hourly visit to the bathroom (commonly
referred to in freshmanese as the john, head, can or
salle de bain, but never the "bathroom.") Some freshmen
are still so tightly attached to home that the apron strings
are visible. They converge on campus with hand-written
instructions from mom on how to do the laundry and
make a daily vigil of calling home precisely at 11:01
daily nebraskan
pjn. (after the rates go down.)
. Perhaps the most distinguishing characteristic of The
Freshman is his unparalleled nerve. How does he ever get
the guts, the seasoned upperclassman asks himself, to ac
tually bring telescope into his dorm room to peer into
the sixth floor room across the court?
But as these wise upperclassmen shake their heads in
amazement at these extraordinary creatures, how can they
forget the few short years ago when they too were
giggling, bumbling frosh arriving at the Big U with visions
of all-night keggers and their first date with a frat man
dancing in their heads?
