Item is a film featuring the sights and sounds of all aspects of attending SFU in early 1970s, from the bus ride to registration to lectures, lunch, and leisure. Current research, issues of the day and the various departments are presented through original lecture audio. Impressions of SFU by students and staff are revealed in interview-style discussion, coupled with thoughtfully shot footage. Interspersed are artistically shot scenes of a sunny campus with a gentle guitar strum. Unlike more contemporary moving image profiles created by SFU, it is not narrated with a script nor overtly promotional.

Disjointed series of shots taken at SFU. Each section is only a few frames and focuses on the buildings, students and scientific experiments and equipment. Opening shows backhoe removing partly burned trees (presumably clearing for campus). Next shot is of AQ and red mosaic mural in background, and "swamp" in foreground where reflecting pond is now located.
