Unlocks New Freedoms Keys "Great" Say Senior Girls
For a minimum fee of $1 per year, any senior girl living in an organized house can check out a key, making it possible for her to unlock the door to her house or hall after closing. The privilege went into effect last Saturday, and most senior girls have been finding them useful.
Feelings are mixed concerning the senior key privilege, but as a whole, the senior women think senior keys "are great."
"Keys give senior girls an opportunity for more freedom and also more responsibility." Beverly Barrett, Colby senior, said.
Other seniors feel it could be a definite advantage if not abused. Ann Gallaher, Denver senior, said she sees no reason for the keys to be used to let a woman stay out late just to stay out late. But she did feel they would come in handy for plays and parties lasting past closing.
Karla Hoelzel, Kansas City, Mo., senior, said one of the advantages is "not having to meet the crowd out front." Miss Hoelzel lives in Ellsworth Hall, a large women's residence hall.
Nancy Razak, Wichita senior, the senior key representative from the Delta Delta Delta sorority, said last week most women used them just to be using them. Most of the women had "to get in because they had other things to do, but the girls think they are nice to have."
On the other hand, at least one senior woman considered it a "faerce because the regulations were so nebulous." Kathy Powell, a Coffeyville senior who lived in Hashinger Hall last year, said she disliked having every question being answered with "use your own discretion."
She said the regulations were

so vague, few women were certain what they were doing. Many only used their keys when it was absolutely necessary, making it a drudgery instead of a privilege. Miss Powell feels the program could be a great success if the regulations were revamped.
As to the opinions of men dating senior women with keys, most agree that they will be useful. Monte Clumsky, Liberal junior, said, "I think they are beneficial
at times and are good if used correctly, but anything can be misused. The privilege should be earned, and they (the women) should know how to use them and what they are for."
Steve Wilson, Kansas City, Kan., senior majoring in political science, sees no reason in such "stringent" hours even for under-class women. But senior women definitely deserve the keys, "because they are adults."
