Living at Wesleyan, many insignificant revelations continually surface; things which aren’t and should be, or are, and should be, or are and should not be. Such items are “Significa”: incoherent ramblings which are, in some strange way, interesting or entertaining (or perhaps neither).
In any case, here are a few of them.
Nobody would care if the Pub was closed, but it sure would be great to get Thursday nights at Downey back.
The Wesleyan Review isn’t very conservative.
Sal’s has the best pitchers.
The “secret” tunnels are a whole lot more fun than the regular ones.
Somehow, the Campus Center doesn’t seem to be all that it was supposed to be.
The Alumni Magazine should be retitled The Wesleyan Catalog for Graduates.
Wesleyan has a lot of pretty women.
The best thing about MoCon is its Captain Crunch. But Mr. MoCon is a pretty witty guy.
WSA should stand for “We Stand Alone.”
“WeScrew and Weswipe” are the two best Weswords.
Our fieldhouse is better than Amherst’s (now).
Does the graveyard at the top of Foss Hill really extend to the middle of the football field?
The Campus Center needs a Liberator machine. And Middletown needs a Store 24 within walking distance of the campus.
All the fines we pay for handing stuff in late Registrar’s Office should go towards buying toilet paper for Williams Street.
And, while on the subject of Williams Street: Has there been a single good Williams Street event this year (that has been advertised enough for anybody to know about)?
President Campbell and President Reagan both have wives with the same first name.
The fact that Middletown has two tanning clinics says quite a bit for the people in this town.
Do the crushed-ice machines in Hall-Atwater really contain biological wastes?
Roving escort’s jingle bells going by my window each hour aren’t loud enough to wake me up every time. Perhaps a foghorn would work better.
Foss Hill was a great invention.
What ever happened to the Fooz-Ball game in Hi-Rise? And where the hell is the Douglas Cannon?
Wesleyan has so many people trying to be diverse, that they end up all looking the same.
Does anybody actually go to departmental seminars?
Spring Fling and Fall Ball, the two biggest events of the year, bring out less than ½ of campus. Where is everybody else? (One response I got: They’re inside, listening to a good band on their stereos!)
Beginning next fall, Marino’s should accept WESEXPRESS for charges of up to $10 a week.
Is anybody in the administration on campus between 11:30 and1:00?
The basement of SciLi has as many lights that don’t work as do.
Crazy Steve and Fred ought to have a price war. Enough with the cassette ads every week; how about some real competition.
Tveskov and Santostefano at Physical Plant may have strange names, but they’re cool guys.
Did you ever wonder…
…how any why the outside lights around campus blink on and off all the time?
…why we can only pick up packages between noon and 4:00?
…why the same people always get (and give) personals?
Remember how important Karl Furstenberg was before we got in?
Why doesn’t housing break down and put doors on the rest of the four-mans?
I’m still wondering who, in the Class of ’87 is the Californian llama herdsman that they told us about during freshman orientation.
Speaking of orientation: there should be Camp Wesleyan for everybody at the beginning of every year.
Is Butterfield ever going to have a good party?
Will the Safety Shuttle ever win the Indy 500?
Is it possible to have registration once a month, instead of once a year?
Will Wesleyan ever get green grass?
