Jennifer Hub* tiard, a junior, likes going to Meredith because she liles to get up five minutes before classes start and not having to put on nDal^e-up. womens' colleges are not for every one, of course. You have to be willing to adhere to the stringent kuies of a wonf)en's college to succeed. The cur fews, rKi men in dorms, no alcohol are a few of the^ rules that some people would not be able to handle. Discipline must be a quality of a Meredith student, and if you don't have it, you will deve lop it. Discipline is a must to succeed in “the real world." Yes, you do have to tie a special person to be a Meredith Angel. Straight Up With Steven The Bartender Steven J. Austin Copyright 1985 DEAR STEVEN: Like every other TV viewer, I see the ads for ridiculously low prices for dia mond jewelry. You know the ones I'm talking about: “Send $19.95 before midnight and receive this genuine ladles’ cocktail ring from our exclusive collection.” Well, I just want to tell your readers that tfiey'd be nr^ng a big mistake by sending in their money. I did, and received a ring that made a bubble gum machine trinket look like the real thing. You get what you pay for. Too tad some ^ us nevo* learn. — LAST TIME SUCKER LAST: Thanks for the Info. Many of the ads try to Impress viewers by claiming their rings contain a certain amount of ‘points' worth of diamonds; .25 points, for example. Well, there are 100 points in a carat, so .25 pts. isequal to1-400th of a carat. Tiny? No. Almost Invisible Is more like It. STEVEN: My parents often make the mistake of calling my fiance, Jay by my boyfriend's name, Richard, i can under stand th^r confuston to some degree, as they’re quite elderly and often get ttte names of their own children and grandchildren mixed up. But Jay is fed up with them, and 1 can't say ttiat I blame him. He won’t say anything tie- cause he's afraid of hurting their feel ings, so he's beginning to take out his frustratkjns on me. This is not a life or death situation, but I’d like to take care of it. Any suggestions? — NAME IT. I’LL TRY IT NAME: He won’t be out of line if tie politefy coHBCts them each time they make a mistake. You can do your part by using his name wtienever possible. Go a little overboard with It if you have to. As for his getting upset with you, I’d set him straight Immediately. Th^s no ex cuse for it. Good luck. DEAR STEVEN: My boyfriend loves to look at other women. He’ll say things about them, too, atxi that’s what upsets me. He'll comment on their pretty legs and hair, and on occasion tias even gone up to one to say how great he thinks she looks. Is that normal for an 18-yeer-old guy? If not, what should I do about it? — LOSING PAVENCE IN INNANA LOSINQ: Looking is normal. You check out the guys. I'm sure. But leaving you in the dust while he makes his personal feel ings krxnvn to a total stranger is uncall ed for. Most women, I would assume, wouldn’t think of putting up with such behavior. You have every right to be up set. Since giving him a dose of his own medicine probably wouldn't do any good, putting the relationship on hoid until he grows up might be the smart move. Discuss It, and if he doesn't seem to care about your feelings, say goodbye.
