These are the reasons to get drunk. It's fun. My list ends there; but fbr many people that is enough to make it worth their while. This week is alcohol awareness week and I was think­ ing about what that might mean on a college campus. I guess it might mean that people ignore it. I drink. I've been drinking since my first trip to WSU when I was still in high school. Those trips, those frat houses and those free drinks for girls quickly taught me that I knew nothing about the power of alco­ hol. I learned fast, as most do. When I was 20, I had a bad year. I became a figure at parties, had nights when I couldn't remember how I got home, did things I didn't want to do, ran my car into a fence, and basically behaved as if my actions had no consequences.

The appeal of drinking is obvious - people relax, socialize and enjoy themselves. The fun of drinking is fine, it's drinking in excess that is frightening. I don't know anyone who likes to wake up wondering what they did the night before, even fewer who like to wake up remembering what they did only to realize they were a jackass, a jerk or had hurt themselves or someone else. We all know the degrees of hurt can vary. I've seen people with the blood vessels in their face burst, because they were throwing up so hard.

Sophomore midfielder Lindsey Conway is this week's "Wildcat of the Week." Conway is one of the leading offensive forces on the Central Washington University women's soccer team. With her offensive prowess, Conway scored in - not one, not two, but all three games played last week. These goals helped Central grab their first league win of the season. Conway has five goals and one assist this season with five remaining games.

Who knoll"s this scoring sensation belier: her roommate or her coach? To find out, we osked Lindsey to answer some questions for us. Then, we asked her room­ mate (mid fellow teammate), soph- omore defender Jamie Bankston, ond coach Mike Farrand to guess 1rhot Lindsey ans\\"ered.
