Apartment living becomes popular
University officials report that students are in an "apartment phase." Why are more and more KU students living in apartments?
"Because the noise is lessened and I can study more effectively," said Bob Curtright, Louisburg graduate student. Explaining his reasons for living in an apartment after four years in scholarship halls, Curtright said now he's a graduate student and it "seems logical." He added, "I can look out the bedroom window and watch the movies at the drive-in."
Dyann Long, Anita, Iowa, graduate student, viewed the advantages of apartment dwelling in a different light, "After four years in the sorority house, no closing hours." In response to finding any difficulties, Miss Long said she has to "get used to the parties upstairs and next door."
WES SANTEE, KU graduate and Lawrence apartment complex owner, said that he had seen no strong trend for moving into apartments, but that more apartments are being occupied for the reason that "the increase in population in the university causes an equitable increase in apartment living."
Santee remarked that many apartment dwellers feel "it is an act of freedom and individualism." He believes that it is healthy for the students to be spread into many different types of living organizations, and not to be held to one.
Opinions among apartment dwellers vary. John Bowman, Larned sophomore, lives in an apartment because he "doesn't like large residence halls," and he "can't afford a fraternity."
ONE ADVANTAGE of living in apartments that seems to be appreciated is the idea of cooking what you want to eat. Martha Hodges, Wichita graduate student, went a step further and said that it was homelike. Miss Hodges said, "I have the run of the area and control of my own time."
Larry Woelk, Wichita sophomore and two year apartment veteran, explains that he has "independence and privacy." He says his grades are good because you can study "where you want, when you want, and how you want."
Bowman, summing up his comments, observed, "You can live with friends instead of just anybody."
