My best experience in snagging women was taking some upper division art class. 30 women, 3 fags, and me.

Very similar to me. Though I lived on campus throughout, worked part time on campus and was in intramural stuff. I took the max. number of hours so as to graduate a year early (no AP back then) and still had more than enough free time to enjoy the full college experience and grow up.

Yes, still have fond memories of that first Casio. To think I swore to never pay over 30 cents for gas.

We had a tea coil, and that was that!

The daughter did her grad work at Stanford. Incredible! First year there she had standard old time housing; next year, Munger Residences .. fantastic suites for each student in an apartment with double kitchen. Never saw anything like it on any college campus.

Meanwhile I lived in an open-bay Quonset hut with a 3X3 hole in the wall next to my bed. Not a good idea during a Korean Winter. And the latrine was in a separate building.

I just finished reading a bio of Gen. Sherman. He attended West Point some time in the late 1830s. He mentioned that one year they had an “upgrade” to their sleeping quarters - they gave them beds.
