She rolled her eyes in mock disbelief. "If it weren't for the opportunity (EONS), I don't think I'd have gotten in. She (McKinney) its a Godsend to me . . . It's nice to have people respond well to the fact that you can change your life."

She tries to grasp the changing mood of students, a sentiment which has been labeled both "neo- conservativism" and "me generation.." "There was so much idealism in the sixties and early seventies. Now people are sadly realistic," she said. When Waterman moved to Ann Arbor, the only student of the family was her husband, Mark, who will complete his dental training this spring. Remembering those times, Waterman said, "I was isolated with new babies. I had trouble getting out of the house. I guess I saw my husband going on in life, to dental school; I really thought about returning to school. It was scary," she said. Returning to school, Waterman said, involved compromising for both herself and her husband. "When I went back to school it was hard for Mark to realize that some of the responsibilities had to be shared. I remember reading an article in Women's Studies 240, 'The Politics of Housework.' It's so true, you have to negotiate the terms-we have lowered our cleanliness standard," she laughed. "He does lots of things now," she continued, "dishes, laundry. We stay up all night studying together." Waterman feels that she and her husband have grown from the experience of her returning to school. "I think that's the real test of a relationship, when you're growing and they keep up with you. I'm grateful it worked out as well as it did." Waterman said her major concern about returning to school though, was 'Here, you are given a lot of time to reflect and plan the future; there, there wasn't a lot offuture to plan.'

Many women are mothers and there's less explaining not her husband, but the care of her children. "The woman who takescare of my kids is an exceptionally fine person; she made it easy for me. If there'd been no day care, I wouldn't have gone to school." She says that there is a problem with "quality day care" in Ann Arbor. "The University doesn't accommodate working people very much at all ... quality day care is hard to find and expensive. In one place (run by the Univesity), a reservation had to be made a year in advance." to do." Now Waterman is working on her honors thesis.
