Growing up, college was always on my radar. It wasn’t a matter of “if,” it was a matter of “where.” As I was considering different colleges, I knew didn’t want to be too close to home. Iowa City seemed like the perfect fit for me. It was three hours away from Western Iowa and I could travel on the interstate for much of the way.
Your last line summarized your college experience-unique! I enjoyed reading about your time in Iowa City, and the dorm/sorority/work life. We lived there for 3 years (1972-1975) as young marrieds. Dan worked part time as a janitor at Hillcrest Dorm, (all men then), while in school. I worked 3 jobs, one as a teacher aide in an elementary school. On Saturdays, I took the 15 cent bus downtown, for fun. You found success when you found your perfect fit!
