Married Life Changes 'Good Time' Charlie
By Bob Brooks
Where's Charlie? He used to be the life of all the parties.
There was a time when Charlie never missed a party and seldom ever cracked a book.
HE WAS A "GOOD TIME" Charlie.
Like so many other guys and gals his age, he had come to college mainly for the purpose of having a real good time while enjoying the freedoms that accompany being away from home.
When Charlie arrived at KU, he really didn't have much of an idea concerning what he wanted to make of himself. He just felt that a college degree was a necessity, and that once he had that degree his worries would be over.
CHARLIE JOINED A FRATERNITY. He had two or three dates every week, always with different girls. He spent money as if it were going out of style. He drank too much beer too often. He cut too many
classes, and when he did attend class he was usually unprepared.
But, he was a "good time" Charlie —the life of all the parties. Where's Charlie?
He's still here, and he's still having a good time.
Charlie has now become accustomed to the freedoms that accompany being away from home, and now his main purpose for being at KU is to get a good solid education while soaking up all the knowledge possible.
HE HAS CHOSEN a special field in which to major after carefully observing his aptitudes and the progressive fields in today's business world. Charlie still wants that degree, but he also wants to graduate with top grades to back it up.
Charlie now lives in an apartment. He is seen every so often at a weekend party, and always with the same girl. His money, what little he has, is spent wisely. He drinks beers occasionally, but never cuts a class and is always prepared.
Charlie has realized a position of
responsibility in this world. He has found himself. He has grown up.
Where's Charlie?
IS CHARLIE TYPICAL of any of today's students at KU?
Charlie is married.
What are some of the changes, if any, that occur when a student steps across the line and marries while in school?
Kip Robinson, Lawrence junior,
said, "Being settled down, I find I
am able to devote more time to
studies. Prior to marriage life I would
frequently find myself at the local
pub rather than home studying.
"On weekends we have been getting together with small groups of married couples for cards, charades or pizza parties, rather than attending the large social events," he said.
BILL GEIST, Lawrence sophomore, said, "Now that I am married, I definitely study more. My spare time is spent over the books. Before. I was busy with a fraternity and outside activities. The responsibility of a wife and child has tended to settle me down."
Tom Herlocker, Lawrence law student, said, "Married life hasn't affected my goals too much because I had my goals made up before I married. It has not affected my study habits adversely, because being in the law school I have to study at the law library.
"Married life has taught me one thing," he said, "How to fold diapers."
JIM TALLEY, LAWRENCE SENIOR, said, "I feel since I am married that I have fewer social obligations. I take my studies more seriously because I have more responsibilities and am closer to my goal."
Howard Parker, Lawrence senior,
said, "There is added responsibility
because you have to look after two
people instead of one. It is easier to
study because there is not as much
to do."
What is a frappé?
It is a French imported cigarette made for you, the imaginative student. This cool mint green menthol filter cigarette is for you if you want a new fresh taste in your smoking. Take the humdrum out of your smoking by buying and trying Frappe! They are sold at normal cigarette prices.
