DWAYNE YANCEY "I feel old/* says Mike Anestos with a sigh, "I feel old this semester." Most James Madison University students don't know who Anestos is. Only those that were here two years ago remember him as the most colorful-and controversial- Student Government Association president this campus has ever had. He was a self-styled "Abbie Hoffman of the late 1970's, " an activist in a time when activism was out of fashion. He said and did outrageous things and always managed to keep himself and SGA in the news. Most presidents are seniors, so they never return to being regular students. As in most things he has done, Anestos is the exception. A junior during his presidential year, 1976-77, he is still here- working toward December graduation on what he calls the "four and a half year plan." For someone who once seemed to thrive on publicity, Anestos has been strangely out of the campus limelight. So much so, that many forget he's still a student. "I get that all the time," he says, "people coming up to me asking, 'what are you doing back? Are you visiting?' I peaked out ray junior year, soaking up all Madison can give you. Now I just feel old."
