before you've swallowed your
last bite, they often won't let you
pay if you haven't been at the
table a decent number of hours.
And while to all Americans ex

(even for classes, believe it or
not).
As one might expect, the
politics here are all reversed.
Conservative means Communist
(and some of my communist
friends are strikingly like some
Young Republicans I have
known), while the arch-liberals
are hard core right-wing
Reaganites, as, for example, a
friend of mine who is a radical
rock singer.
But one doesn't hear too many
political arguments- - there's of
ficially nothing to argue about
(that's why there will probably
be only one candidate for each
position in the upcoming
presidential elections). Only in
small dark rooms with drawn
curtains can one hear confessions
of capitalistic leanings, and even
then only when one is an
American or confessed capitalist.
The list goes on and on: all here
is topsy-turvey. Still, after all
that, it's the same. We all live,
and we all have things we expect
to get out of life. If we've got it
and want to keep it, then we're
conservative. If we haven't got it,
or see someone else who hasn't
and care, then we aren't.

Several Main Campus students
interviewed work now or have
worked during previous
semesters. Although these jobs
are mostly part-time, the ten
sions between work and school
felt by these students are very
similar to those felt by their full
time employee classmates. So
much to do, so little time.
The problems of the working
adult are apparent. Conflicts of
time and priorities can seriously
affect academic performance.
But there are also benefits to
working while attending college.
The most obvious benefit is of

equally important benefit is the
knowledge gained in the working
world which can be used to
enhance the academic ex

There is yet another benefit to
working that few people
recognize. Our sense of identity
comes from different sources,
and the working student has one
more source from which to draw
reinforcement of his or her
abilities and self-image.
Besides, anyone who can han

Apathy: it's a national prob
lem, especially among teens.
Adolescent behavior experts
see more and more teen-agers
with similar
symptoms—they're bored,
depressed and unable to think
realistically about their future.
Although many parents and
teachers may think teen-agers
are just "going through a
stage," the problem is deeper,
and depression can have scary
effects. In the past 20 years,
teen-age suicides have tripled,
according to the American
Association of Sucidology in
Denver. An increasing number
of adolescents are being
hospitalized for depression.
After high school, an increas
ing number of grown
children—2o million in
1982—stay at home rather
than find a place of their own.
Psychologist Elaine Moor,
director of an intervention
program at Ada S. McKinley
Community Services in
Chicago, has seen more teens
who are depressed and
apathetic in the past five
years, teens who "are unequip
ped to make the transition
from late childhood to self
sufficient young adulthood."
Moor believes that a major
reason stems from overprotec
tion by parents, who
sometimes make excuses for
child irresponsibility.
Adolescents cannot learn the
consequence of their actions if

"creates an unreal world for
them."
Another effect of over
protection is a self-centered,
"the world owes me" attitude.
Moor says teens can turn to
depression and apathy when
they realize they are under
skilled to make it in the world.
Society is partly to blame
for the confusion during teen
years. The nuclear threat, in
ternational upheaval, high
unemployment and rising
prices brings on a feeling of
"Why worry about the future
when it might not even
come?".
All right. All this is depress
ing enough. What can be done
to help?
Teen-age apathy should not
be ignored, hoping it will be
outgrown, Moor says. A
reassertion of adult authority,
setting appropriate * teen-age
behavior patterns and giving
increasing responsibility will
help teens face the reality of
becoming adults.

Campus Digest News Service
You first heard it on a Wen
dy's hamburger commercial,
but the now-famous question
is popping up on T-shirts, in
political cartoons and
jabs—even high-school
basketball cheers.
Copywriter Clifford
Freeman of Dancer Fitzgerald
Sample Inc. thought up the
slogan with a minimum of ef

gave advertising fans
"Sometimes you feel like a
nut; sometimes you don't"
(Mounds and Almond Joy
candies) and "the extra cool
sensation of gale-force Arctic
winds whipping through my

But without director Joe
Sedelmaier of Chicago, it just
wouldn't have been the same.
He cast the three women in the
commercial, which was
originally written for a wdman
and two men.
Indicators point to the suc
cess of the slogan. Besides the
