• Oh give me a home, £ where the buffaloes roam...

Forget tailgating on the back of a beat-up Escort or slurping brewskies and eggs at a local dive. How about "watergating" with Husky fans at the U. of Washington? Or "Humpin' It" with students from Texas A&M? It's college football nirvana — where students will do just about anything for the home team. Like at the U. of Washington. Here students party on waves near their home field. For Washington fans, the civilized boo/in' and cruisin' on the waters that border Husky Stadium is a i* * class ride. "It's a celebratory-type thing," says senior Peter Randall. "College students drink beer all the time—for any reason. This is something special, something different. Husky football games are special events." Special enough that students will go all out for their teams. And once the main event begins, those responsible for starting the wave and rallying the troops take control. Mascots like Ralphie of the Colorado Buffaloes bring fan support to new extremes as the spiritual leaden of the college football world. Ralphie III, the fifth buffalo to sport the moniker of "Colorado mascot," is the pride and joy of Boulder. Following in the hoof steps of predecessors Mr. Chips and Moon, Ralphie has continued the tradition of leading the Colorado team onto the field at the start of the game and second half. Part ofthe introduction includes running toward the visitor's bench. Intimidation at its finest, Buffalo-style. The Florida Cators don't neetd a rushing buffalo, though.

At least one U. of Minnesota student has no trouble paying her tuition or bills. The 24-year-old graduate student has a well-paying, albeit unorthodox, profession. But in Minnesota, her job is illegal. She's a prostitute. And what's more, Jane (not her real name) claims she was introduced to lhe profession through a university speaker in a women's studies class. Rebecca Rand, Minnesota's most notorious madam, has passed her message to hundreds of students al the U. of Minnesota, as well as St. Cloud State, Mankato State and Minneapolis South High School - schools that have invited her to speak. Rand, who has been in the business for 20 years, says she believes prostitution is just another profession. There's nothing wrong with women providing sex in exchange for money as long as they like it, she says. Rand was found guilty of racketeering and promoting prostitution in April, according to court documents. She was released in August after serving a four-month sentence and paying more than $200,000 in fines. A U. of Minnesota speech-communications graduate, Rand has given talks about her business at the school, and several students have worked for her.

Thank the Lord for small favors — like changes of season. By the time the trees have shed their leaves, the studios usually have exhausted their tired inventory of mind-numb­ ing summer sequels, mega-million dollar mar­ keting vehicles and action flicks starring mus­ cle-laden, accented martial arts experts who couldn't breathe life into a line of dialogue if Lee Strasberg beat them todeath with an acting stick. Even if the autumn offerings aren't as highbrow as, say, Huffy the Vampire Slayer, the majority sheiuld tiller some sort of mental stim­ ulation to patrons who don't have to be accom­ panied by an adult loan R-ratedpicture. Of Mice ami Men (Metro Goldwyn Mayer) Adding a distinct literary touch to the offerings this fall is this adaptation of John Steinbeck's tragic novel. John Malkovich plays the feeble­ minded Lennie, and Gary Sinise, whe. also directs, plays his more competent companion, George.
