STUDENT GROUPS
Advertise in the Emerald.

We have great University rates.
How the crazy sports desk made
one more year worth the stay
I have no business writing
this column.
College should be a distant memory.
I should be long gone, doing old man
things such as settling into a career, los
ing my hair and watching the
size of my waistline grow
(though you could argue the lat
ter two have already started). In
stead, I’ve managed to hang
around the University two terms
longer than I should have.
,
Ana l woman t nave it any
other way.
I thought I needed 16 credits
to graduate wnen tne academic year
began. It sounded easy enough. Take
four classes during fall term, and get
out of here. I just had to find a way to
balance my schoolwork with time
spent at the Emerald and attempt to
have a social life.
The natural thing to do when you’re
close to graduating is to buckle down
and finish your classwork so you can
move on with your life. Covering the
football team was going to be a big deal
for me during fall term, but I figured it
would come secondary to my quest for
a degree.
Then something happened that
changed my outlook.
I realized I really liked the idiots I
work with on the Emerald sports staff.
I didn’t know C Jo, Dome, Shaggy or
§20 that well when the year
started, but things quickly
* changed. Rarely do I run into
people who possess the
same goofy mentality as I do,
let alone in the workplace,
but these guys made coming

ROUGHING THE PASSER
into work tun.
We went on road trips.
We went to Rennie’s. We
drew upngnts on an office wall and
tried to kick field goals with a mini
foam football.
We always found a way to laugh and
have fun.
As fall term was coming to a close,
my previous thoughts of finishing in
one term proved premature when 1
found out I still needed two more non
journalism credits to fulfill my require
ments. Sadly enough, I was actually ex
cited to know I wasn’t done.
The good times continued with the
sports staff through basketball season.
We played poker, we threw things at
each other, and, despite coming down
with a brutal case of the flu, I managed
to pass History of Modem Europe to
close out winter term.
Time to leave, right?
In tme immature, waste-of-life,
don’t-want-to-grow-up fashion, I man
aged to hang around spring term as
well. I signed up for — but didn’t at
tend — a table tennis class so I could
keep working (if you want to call it
that) at the Emerald.
As sad as it may sound for someone
to unnecessarily hang around as long
as I have, I feel like the last year truly
completed my college experience. I had
plenty of fun the first four years, but
staying around for an extra couple of
terms gave me endless memories that
I’ll keep with me the rest of my life.
So as my final days of being a kid
wind down, I want to thank the sports
staff for all the good times. Whether it
was driving to Pullman, Wash., with C
Jo, doing something stupid to amuse
Dome, taking 20’s money during pok
er games or attempting to give Shaggy
female advice, I’ll always remember
the good times.

actual liberal educational experience.
It now seems to center almost
squarely on flinging you into a career
as quickly as possible.
This is highly pronounced in the
journalism school, where I’ve spent
the majority of my time. “Get an in
ternship or you’ll starve in a gutter”
is the most common advice. The idea
that you might approach journalism
exclusively from the perspective of
intellectual curiosity is something
alien and spooky to these people.
The idea that you might not want to
do this for the rest of your life ap
proaches blasphemy. Try to explain
that you might consider film criticism
to be a form of journalism and you
get looked at like the retarded cousin
nobody talks about but to whom
everyone is polite to because he can’t
help being what he is.
Not that I’m ungrateful. If any
thing, I can at least say that I’m col
lege-educated, which should take
me far in North Dakota. Or it could
get the crap beaten out of me. De
pends whom you’re conversin’
with. In any case, it was a necessary
part of my life, a chapter now end
ing, new one beginning, blah, blah,
blah. Maybe it will hit me on grad
uation day, the importance of all of
this. But with my natural dislike of
ceremony, I think my mind might
be more concerned with how un
comfortable I am in robes. Maybe it
will hit me later. Maybe.
