Seniors flex muscles We are seniors. Hear us roar. "A person older or of higher rank of another; more advanced in dignity or rank." According to The New Merriam-Webster Dictionary, it sounds as if seniors are pretty important people. Why then, do we have no important privileges? Now think about it. We have spent at least $40,000 of our parents or our own money in order to obtain senior status. We have gone through more pairs of shoes than anyone else on campus. We survived the "red mud pit days," resulting in the demise of endless pairs of white shoes, pantyhose and dress slacks. We conquered the "wet cement sidewalks everywhere" phase with relative dignity still intact We stomached the "walk around the old cafeteria for an hour to get a table" days. We tolerated the "let's see how many people we can smush National health system promotes into the multi-purpose center for chapel. We laugh at those who had to sit on the floor" days. We have attended 672 church and chapel services, or we were supposed unnecessary government intrusion to have attended. We have hauled around more than 120 pounds of books.
