Friends ' By SUE TAYLOR, '65 CHICAGO — An estimated 300 Chicago area alumni and friends ,of the college recently attended a dinner and reception December 10 honoring Dr. Glenn Leggett, Grin< ‘oell’s eighth president. Dllring a brief address, Dr. Leggett discus- sed the college’s residence hall system and promised that some .recammendations regarding pro- posed changes in the system would be coming from his office by spring. , Leggett stressed his desire to rid the system at its inflexibility. "The residence hall system ought to be flexible enough to provide for various kinds of students” he said. He explained, for example, that there are two distinct kinds or, senior men—those seriously preparing tor graduate school and those who are devoted to the res- idence hall system. Leggett said that provisions should be made to accommodate both in the dormi- tories. Dr. Leggett assured his audi- ence that the concern over the residence halls began several years ago with the iaculty, and that both Lhe investigation and . concernY and his recommenda- tions are on “academic grounds.” He said that the problem has been discussed at length with stil- dents and iaeulty. When asked about u proposal that would place all juniors and seniors on north campus and all sophomores and ireshmen on smith campus, Leggett said, “I think it's sate to say that we have tabled the idea." However, he said, there is some thinking about the possibility of a senior dorm. Leggett's remants were primar- ily concerned with north campus. “We’ve given up the thought of doing anything about the south campus problem,” he said. ”It we can solve the north campus prob- lem, a good many or the problems on south campus will disappearr" He explained that south campus problems are a reflection of north campus problems, and added that women generally manage their Social problems better than men. However, he added, “We’re al» most ready now to make a recom- mendation on a new (women’s) residence hall.” The alumni gathering was held in suburban Hinsdale. In addition to Dr, and Mrs. Leggett, the Cole lege community was represented by Dr. and Mrs. Joseph Wall (his- tory), Coach and Mrs. Edd BowA ers (men's physical education), Dr. and Mrs. Grant Gale (physics), and Alumni Secretary Mary G.
