PICTURE OF THE WEEK

The Death of a Good Thing, 1969. Alfred's Campus Center has made a bad move. Closing down the Campus Center Cafe- teria after 7 p.m. (except for a self-service snack bar). Peo- ple like to eat decent food after dark (even in Alfred). The only ones who see^m to realize this are those persons running the sub shop. The Center has replaced a good cafeteria and a warm atmosphere (easily available to students in the library or in the dorms) with a snack bar located in the corner of the cafeteria. Where can you get an ice cream cone, or a lousy grilled cheese sandwich, after CEILING 7 p.m.; certainly not in the Campus Center. AND Business slackened off last year after 7 p.m. due to the opening of the pub.,This year, VISIBILITY students weren't even given a chance to show' that they would UNLIMITED use the cafeteria at night.
