The week’s events begin at 11 a.m. today with free popcorn in the Pit and run through Thursday. Senior Class Secretary Shawn Brooks said senior week offers a little something for everyone. “Senior Week is important because it marks one of the only times for seniors to come together and unite,” Brooks said. Senior class officials said that while the fall Senior Week has not traditionally been as involved as the spring version, they have expanded its offerings this year. Officials also said they have scheduled more events on campus this year to make Senior Week less of a social event and to include the seniors who are not yet 21. “In the past, the primary focus of senior week revolved around clubs and FAIR From Page 3 works almost 30 hours a week with no vacation time at the Water Gun Fun booth. He juggles the rest of his time between another job driving a tractor trailer and his family in Boston. Costin, like many of his co-workers, follows the fair caravan by truck, spending nights in hotels with his own money, but he said he delights in his daily work. “I cater to the kids,” he said with a smile. “I give everything away!” But life on the road is difficult for Costin. “My youngest daughter turned 5 yesterday, and I couldn’t even be there for it,” Costin said a week ago. “I’m lucky though because some of these guys never see (their families).” For some the enjoyment of the pro fession is well worth the demands. • m Largest Selection 0f... | rx • MctSWrctcifi XvertTftU Hat and ..a Wijj Rentals Theatrical Makeup /QpMlh, Costume Accessories 919.9422131' Rams Plaza, Chapel Hill QB.fI.CC Extended Witching Hours: Sat, Oct. 27: loam-6pm; Sun, Oct. 28: l-6pm; Mon.

The money then funds the activities, which are free to all seniors who want to participate. One of the new on-campus activities is the senior petting zoo, which will give seniors the chance to mingle with baby animals. The zoo will be set up from 10:30 a.m, to 1:30 p.m. Tuesday in the Pit On Tuesday the Senior Success Series, which is intended to help seniors prepare to leave UNC and enter the work force, kicks off with an etiquette dinner at 6:30 p.m. in the George Watts Hill Alumni Center. Students must purchase tickets in advance from the GAA. After the dinner, seniors are invited to Gotham night club from 10 p.m. to 2 a.m. to participate in a Halloween costume competition. At noon Wednesday, seniors can par Gustafson, a 48-year-old Michigan native, said he loves “the freedom to work for (himself).” He joined the Strates carnival 28 years ago after a stint in the army. “I was just being a hippie,” he said with a nostalgic grin. “I was looking for some thing to do in the 705.” He likened his carnival work to the Dionysian theater of ancient Greece, which played off audience reaction rather than a set script. “We respond to the people as they come to us,” Gustafson said. Before his days of fast food and Ferris wheels, Gustafson spent four years at Grand Valley College in Michigan where he read extensively and wrote for his school newspaper. He said he decided against taking his writing talent to a professional level. “Writing is too personal," he said. “You really put your soul out there.” Gustafson said he knows working at carnivals does not gamer him the | angular Wireless Stores ] Ave DURHAM “ 1837 Martin Luther King, Jr. SaltDox Village 403-2590 1257 Kildaire Farm Rd.

The distance isn’t a problem, he said. “I can come and go as I like.” A schedule like this is hard to find in today’s world as most people look for practicality, for stability. But not the carnival workers. Not Richard Gustafson. As he takes four tickets from a fairgoer and retreats into his world of colored lights and caramel popcorn, he smiles thoughtfully. “I am who I am. I’m not going to hide that from anybody.” The Features Editor can be reached at features@unc.edu.
