SC Presents Challenges, Diversity for ULV Students

Ever have a half hour to kill and nothing to do? The Student Cen­ter offers a number of methods to cure the most chronic forms of student boredom. In addition to the classic standards of pool, ping-pong and fooseball, the Stu­dent Center has added such 20th century wonders as Space In­vaders, Asteroids and Pac Man. Pac Man and Asteroids are the most recent additions to the Tents, brought in by Colossal Games, which gives half the money to the school and keeps the other half. There are often crowds standing around the games, but they are available to all students, though it might be necessary to wait a while. But for the well-rounded gamesman, the Student Center offers sufficient challenges to while away even the dullest afternoon.
