For most of my college experience Ive
had meals provided for me. First in the
residence halls and then in my sorority
house.
But I can cook and by that I mean I
can follow a recipe without lighting any-
thing on fire.
But in general cooking requires some
preparation and planning. And I never
know what I want to eat until Im hungry
and craving goat cheese and french bread.
And at that point I rarely have the
patience for cooking, especially when a
look at my empty cupboard reminds me
that I would have to go shopping.
But shopping for groceries doesnt have
to take hours or wipe out your checking
account. And food cooked at home is usu-
ally healther than restaurant or fast food
options.
For more information on healthy cook-
ing and tips to save money, check out
Kelsey Cipollas story on page 10.
Also, we have sudokus.

By Claire MCinerny
editor@kansan.com

When Alex Earles, a senior from Salina,
interned for a lobbying firm in Washington
D.C. last summer, he learned about politics
from professionals. On weekends, he visited
the Smithsonian with friends and enjoyed
eating at local restaurants. Despite his expe-
riences in the city, Earles said one of his
favorite parts of the summer was living in
his apartment.
For students who get internships in dif-
ferent cities, finding housing can be an
obstacle. Because internships are temporary,
finding an apartment to sublease can be
tricky. But there are many housing options
specifically catered to summer interns.
Earles lived in an apartment with other
college-age interns, who he found through
an organization called Washington Intern
Student Housing (WISH).
You live with other interns you can
trust, because youre in the same situation,
compared to just going on Craigslist and
finding a random person, Earles said.
WISH matches students with other
interns and tries to put them in a building
close to where they will be working. WISH
also provides furniture, kitchen supplies
and maintenance for the interns, who can
either pay their rent up front at the begin-
ning of the summer or on a month-to-
month basis.
Living with other interns also offers
security to college students who are far
away from home. Earles said he felt com-
fortable leaving his laundry in the basement
of the building, and always thought that it
wouldnt be stolen because the people he
lived with were other college students.
Patty Noland, the career development
coordinator for the School of Journalism,
helps students find a place to live once they
get an internship out of town.
Noland said finding short-term housing
in big cities is difficult, but there are alter-
native options to renting an apartment.
My advice to a student, if theyre going
to intern in a big city, is find out if the local
colleges do rent dorm rooms to interns,
Noland said.
In New York City, for example, NYU
and Columbia University rent their dorm
rooms to interns in the summer.
Noland also tells her students to use the
resources they already have.
If you want to go to another city to
intern, look at where you have relatives or
friends to live with for a summer, Noland
said. Thats a way to be creative without
getting into a lease.
For Earles, spending his summer in a
new city was enhanced, not hindered, by
his living situation.
I got to experience the city with other
people, Earles said. Compared to if I
would have lived alone it would not have
been as fun.

T
he best part about spring is the ability
to use the phrase, out with the old, in
with the new.
This is the time of year to throw out those
old clothes, clean up apartments and prepare
for the wonderful warmth of the summer sun.
I thought this would be the perfect time
to help those of you who are having trouble
taking spring cleaning by the horns and
offer some advice.
Not everyone participates in this unofficial
holiday, but those of us who are plagued
by messiness often view the springtime as
Mother Natures way of saying, Hey, clean out
all the trash in your apartment. Oh, and throw
out that moldy couch.
Now Im no expert, but if watching HGTV
for hours every night while eating Blue Bunny
Ice Cream and crying uncontrollably until I
fall asleep tells you anything, I do have some
knowledge on the matter. All you need to do
to transform your apartment is follow these
easy steps:
STEP oNE: CLEAN oUT ALL THE
DIRTY DISHES IN YoUR SINK
All of that old food starts to stink after
a while, and no matter how much that 15
minutes matters to you, its probably better
spent cleaning your kitchen than it is checking
Facebook.
STEP Two: VACUUM YoUR
fLooRS
This one is pretty self-explanatory. (If you
dont own a vacuum, save yourself the time
and buy a Roomba.)
STEP THREE: TAKE DowN ALL
THoSE EMbARRASSING
PoSTERS fRoM THE 90S
And replace them with edgy, new age art
prints that no one really understands. This
is a sure-fire way to impress any guests who
might find themselves otherwise pondering
your vintage 98 Degrees poster.
STEP foUR: bUY A CLICH
fLooR MAT foR YoUR
fRoNT DooR
Anything from a beer company floor mat
to a wipe your paws mat will suffice.
STEP fIVE: bE CREATIVE!
Like that Jayhawks shirt so much, but get
angry you stain it every time you wear it out?
Hang it up on the wall. Nothing says youre a
true fan like a T-shirt tacked up on the wall.
Dont forget that Jeff Gordon jersey, too.
STEP SIx: MAKE YoUR
RooMMATE CLEAN
THE bATHRooM
If you live alone, youll have to execute this
step yourself, but for those of us fortunate
enough to have friends its a relatively easy
one to accomplish. (Blackmail!)
There you have it. These are all the steps
you need to successfully transform your
apartment from a hobos commode to a
stylish abode. And lets face it, if all else fails,
you can call your mom and convince her to
come out for a weekend to spend time with
you.

The dining hall isnt an option any more.
Fast food loses its appeal after the fourth
straight night of value menu hamburgers. And
at a certain point, the delivery guy starts look-
ing at you with judgment. Whats a hungry col-
lege student to do? Give cooking a try.
Cooking is usually healthier and cheaper
than eating out, said Ann Chapman, a dieti-
tian and coordinator of nutritional services at
the Wellness Resource Center. She said most
college students dont eat enough fruits and
vegetables, which can be incorporated into
homemade dishes quickly and inexpensively.
Microwave cooking is the best way to mini-
mize nutrient loss with vegetables, Chapman
said.
Try giving packaged foods a boost of nutri-
ents and flavor. She suggests making ramen
noodles with half of the flavor packet, adding
fresh or frozen vegetables and a sprinkle of
parmesan cheese for an easy, healthy twist on
a college staple. Though fresh produce can
come with a high price, frozen and canned
vegetables and fruits have all of the benefits
without the cost. Chapman said to pick fruits
canned in their own juices rather than syrup.
Rinse canned vegetables before eating, because
they tend to be high in sodium.
Other money saving shopping tips include
buying generic brands and choosing leaner cuts
of beefs, which have less fat but more protein.
Dried beans cost less than their canned coun-
terparts, have more servings per bag and con-
tain less sodium. The ambitious cook can even
save by purchasing a whole chicken instead of
simply chicken drumsticks or breasts. Make
sure to freeze leftovers in liquid to prevent
freezer burn.
Simply planning ahead can also prevent
overspending at the store. Deciding what youll
be cooking during the week and making a list
of the ingredients ahead of time serves as a
reminder of what to buy and also helps you
ignore all of the foods that you dont need.
If youre consistently eating the same foods,
try buying in bulk.
I cook and eat a lot of certain amounts of
foods, so its much easier to buy in bulk once
a month than it is to go to the store every two
weeks, said Jeff Hubrig, a sophomore from
Knoxville, Tenn.
Hubrig stocks his kitchen with giant bags of
chicken and rice, a gallon jug of peanut oil and
a nine-pound box of oatmeal.
Prices are often cheaper when you buy in
bulk, especially if you can buy directly fromthe
manufacturer, he said.
To keep the same foods fromgetting boring,
he changes the seasoning or adds lemon or
lime juice for flavor.
Keep other cooking costs low by saving with
inexpensive cookware. Wal-Mart and Target
both offer pots and pans for under $20. Swap
out expensive ingredients for cheaper items
or those you already have. Use vanilla extract
instead of vanilla beans or cut up old bread and
bake it to avoid buying bread crumbs.
Food goes bad within a few days, so only
make what you think youre going to eat to
avoid throwing out rotten food and wasting
money. After cooking, store leftovers in air-
tight containers and refrigerate or freeze. Then
sit back and enjoy the fact that your meal didnt
come in a paper bag.

APARTMENT GUIDE 3 11
By Max RothMan
mrothman@kansan.com
Youve just moved into your pristine, new
apartment. Now its time to trash it.
Were not talking a black-tie affair, a warm
social gathering or even a casual dinner party
with red wine, camembert cheese and pseudo-
intellectual conversation. Were talking a full-on
rager. The kind of party that, years down the
road, youd never tell your grandkids about.
Its the kind of party that gets the geezer next
door to yell, Dag nabbit! The darn kids and
their rock and roll music and their funny record
players and their...
But how is this art done properly? Like a
maniacal chemist, one must endure a careful
step by step procedure to ensure a successful
party.
STEP 1 : INVITATIoNS
You dont want to walk around town telling
people about the party. Maybe you like to dirty
an apartment, but youre lazy. Maybe youre shy
and not the type to be personally inviting every
person you see.
Put it on Facebook, Courtney Mannelll, a
freshman fromLawrence said.
More people will know about it. Thats what
makes a party: the people, she said. You get to
meet new people and broaden your spectrum
of friends.
With one tweet, you could gather a small-
sized book club. With one Facebook page,
youve got half of Lawrence. But is that what
you really want?
Ben Moulthrop, a freshman fromDallas, said
that he was just too squished at a recent party.
It took me 20 minutes to get a cup, he said.
That is a party turn-off.
Make sure youre not scrunched up to each
other, he said. That can get really annoying.
Ive been in one like that, and I just left. It was
too hard to walk around.
STEP 2 : GET GUESTS To MINGLE
So now the party is underway and people
knowabout it, but not too many. What are help-
ful ways to improve the social scene?
Erinn Mallon, a junior from Minneapolis,
enjoys when its not segregated and the whole
group is having fun together, and theres not
just different groups of people sitting around.
You didnt gather all of these people here so
that you could stand in a circle with your friends
and their cups, did you?
STEP 3: ATMoSPHERE
Now, to some, the most important ingredi-
ent: music.
Put on Crystal Castles and have a lot of peo-
ple with glow sticks and black lights, Colleen
Brennan, a senior fromTopeka, said.
If youre not into Crystal Castles, you want to
keep a dance-electro feel and youve got some
money to invest in this epic fiesta, hire a local
DJ.
If youdrather blare something fromyour own
speakers, consider fluidity of genres. A constant
mistake of the homemade DJ is playing, for
example, punk into hip-hop. It usually doesnt
work, people. Try to mesh funk (Parliament,
Zapp, Prince) into hip-hop (J Dilla, Gang Starr,
Black Moon) then hip-hop into other hip-hop
with more of a rock feel (newer Roots, Cannibal
Ox, Outkast). Then rock (Captain Beefheart,
Television, Death From Above 1979) into elec-
tro (James Blake, Cut Copy, Burial).
And even all of that, which criminally exclud-
ed reggae, is a bit too quick in transition from
sound to sound. In other words, dont jump
from step one on the hopscotch court to step
eight.
So youve got your sounds on point, but
whats up with the glow sticks and black lights?
People always have more fun with vibrant
colors, Brennan said. It puts you in a better
mood.
STEP 4 : SEcURITY
And finally, be aware of your surroundings at
all times, Brennan said. She said that she heard
stories of stalkers and creepers who are under
the influence.
Its weird when people that dont even know
each other are grinding, Mallon said.
Invite the right amount of people via
Facebook, mingle, play the right music with
conscious transitions, bring glow sticks and
black lights, and respect the people around you.
Followthese steps and youll be joyous about the
filth of your new apartment.

It can be really frustrating having to put on
your groveling face for your best friend every
time you need to make a trip to the grocery
store because you dont have a car.
However, with the gas prices making people
cringe as they pump $3.52 per gallon on average
across the nation, according to the U.S. Energy
Information Administration, you are probably
putting on your smug face. You have already
found ways around transportation by car.
Ayako Sawaguchi, a junior from Kansas
City, Mo., lives off campus with a family friend
and without a car. She used to ask her friend
to drive her to campus every morning. After
discovering the simplicity of getting where she
needs to go by bus, she stopped making these
requests.
Last year she took me everywhere,
Sawaguchi said. I felt bad asking for a ride
every morning.
However, gas prices are not keeping
Sawaguchi from purchasing a car. She said that
she had heard too many stories of car accidents
where people have died. She said she did not
trust herself in a car and had yet to learn how
to drive.
I think I would get in an accident. I get lost
easily, and Im careless, Sawaguchi said.
Sawaguchi uses the Lawrence Transit System
and KU on Wheels to go to and from her
house.
KU and Lawrence T buses work together to
ensure that students ride for free with a KU ID.
Riding the bus can get you in walking distance
of most places in Lawrence. All of the bus routes
are mapped on www.lawrencetransit.org.
Traveling by bus isnt limited to Lawrence.
Sawaguchi will take the K-10 connector on
occasion to visit her family in Kansas City. It
costs only $3. Bus route information and sched-
ules can be found on the Johnson Country
transit site, www.thejo.com.
Sherrie Pai, a junior from Olathe, also uses
the KU on Wheels. She said she was paying for
her tuition on her own and could not afford to
maintain a car. While she manages to get rides
from friends and take the bus, she said it was
not always easy.
Its difficult because I cant just get around
to different places whenever I want, Pai said.
And its difficult to rely on public transpor-
tation especially when I am running late or
something.
Stuart Becker, a senior from Kansas City,
Mo., is also without a car. While he uses K-10
connector to visit his parents, sometimes he
can save himself the $3 fee by riding his bike
the 44 miles home. The ride usually takes him
90 minutes to two hours.
Becker had a car his first semester at the
University but used it only to get home during
breaks. After some thought, he decided a car
wasnt worth paying for gas, parking permits,
car insurance and repairs.
All the costs added up to something I didnt
need, Becker said.
While Becker said he solely used his bike for
fun and utility, there are health and environ-
mental benefits for choosing two wheels instead
of four. Biking to your destination is a great way
to stay in shape without having to schedule
time to work out. Because you are not using any
gas, biking doesnt emit any pollution.

What do you think?
by Victoria Pitcher
BRITTANY MEYER
Freshman from Independence
Probably not. I think it would be
uncomfortable and you never
know who youre gonna get.
LEE CRIPPEN
Sophomore from Olathe
yeah, you meet someone new and
you meet their friends.
EVA wHERLE
Freshman from Lawrence
yes. I fnd it better because with
friends I can be really rude and
disrespectful. With friends you can
be way more open.
Would you consider living in an apartment with a stranger?
QING wANG
Sophomore from Tianjin, China
yeah I think so because when
I frst came here I didnt know
anyone.
