Coeds, parents decide on hours
By DEBBIE EAGLEBURGER
Kansan Staff Writer
Freshman women have the option of living in halls either with closing hours or without closing hours for the first time this year.
All freshman women had closing hours for an orientation period of six weeks. Those who have chosen to live without closing hours are now free to come and go from their halls as they please.
The coeds have the choice of remaining with their present plan throughout the year or they may change to the opposite plan at the semester.
Freshman women and their parents had the option of selecting one of four plans. The plans are all women's residence hall with closing hours, all women's
residence hall without closing hours, coeducational residence hall with closing hours and coeducational residence hall without closing hours.
Corbin Hall has one wing of coeds who have hours and one wing of coeds who don't have closing hours. Mrs. Karen Sweeney, resident director of Corbin Hall, said there has been practically no change in the behavior of the freshman women in Corbin since closing hours were lifted.
Coeds in Gertrude Sellars Pearson Hall have closing hours. Mrs. Marie Lerner, resident director of GSP, said there has been no reaction of regret from women who have closing hours.
Hashinger Hall is one of the halls operating without closing
hours. Mrs. Trudy Shay, Hashinger resident director, said most women were glad there was an orientation period with closing hours but many said they were happy the orientation is over.
The scholarship halls are mixed in regards to closing hours. Some freshmen have closing hours and some do not. The majority of the freshman women in the scholarship halls have no closing hours, however. The presidents of the women's scholarship halls said most women have been able to accept the
responsibilities of not having closing hours.
Each coeducational residence hall housing freshman women has its own plan. Ellsworth Hall coeds have no closing hours. Oliver women have closing hours.
Mrs. Nancy Harp, Oliver resident director, said there has been little discontent with the system. Pat Scott, assistant resident director at Ellsworth, said the women generally have accepted the responsibilities which go with the absence of closing hours well.
