After five

Ever wonder where your co-workers are headed at the end of the day? This Inside feature catches up with university employees "after five." Photo by Bob Elbert.

Name: Nancy Qvale

By day, she's: Office coordinator, department of civil and construction engineering

After five, she's: Editor, 'Toons, a weekly independent cartoon newspaper, circ. 12,000

Lives like Lou Grant: 10 hours per week producing layouts

You don't have to be Doonesbury: "I always love to see the work of budding cartoonists. And we love a good scandal once in awhile -- but we do have to draw the line somewhere."

Press perks: "The money, the variety, the fact that I get to read all these great cartoons. How many jobs do you know of where you go to work to be totally entertained?"
