. .. .\ ? upThe Union -the epitome of humanity, especially ofhumanity at D.U.; the special hang-out of everyone whohas no other special hang-out; occupied by "Uniontrolls,"who sit, sleep, eat, socialize and dream withintheir own territory, their own booth, their own sectionof their Union. Classification of " freak" or " greek"does not describe them. They belong to none of thesefraternal groupings; they belong solely to the Union.When the Union opens at 7:30a.m. they assume theterritory, perhaps leaving at some point during the dayto attend a class or sit in the Humanity Gardens;when the midnight hour arrives they leave. They do notflunk out of school, for the Union is their librarywithout books. If the Clarion is late they are thefirst to notice, for this is their calendar. The"trolls" do not always know the other "trolls"; theywill greet each other and smile, but they will notsit together, for they are each separate.Inhabiting one section are the bridge players, andwhen they are not playing they might be reading abook or studying at the next table, listening to theresults of their fellows. Never are they removed.246
