Friday, February 14. “767 } Apartments (Continued from Page 1) Dean Thompson expressed the administrative attitude to- ward off-campus apartment liv- log to an 5&3 reporter in the following manner: I. The administration looks with disiavur on off - cam- pus apartment living. , The character of Grinnell would change radically it students were allowed to live off - campus. An interpretation of “resi- dential college” as “dormis tnry residence” is arhi~ trary, but so is everything else. .Dormitory life has educa- tional advantages as inl- lows: a, opportunity to meet many different kinds of people b. chance to learn to live with others 0. proximity oi new stu- dents in those already involved in campus ac- (Willem, Students expressing comments opposed to oiircampus apart< merit living (2 students who were against this suggestion favored college — owned off- campus housing as an alterna tive) listed the following basic reasons for their opinions: 1. Lack of contact with other students 2. Dorms provide more con< Veniences (erg. maid ser- vice) 3. Apartments are less physi- cally presentable than dorms 4, Parental disapproval Rather than employing the usual editorial technique of presenting my own opinions of these attitudes, I am going to allow the students who com- mented favorably an the idea of oft-campus apartment living to speak tor themselves; in fact, it is the students who both favor and oppose the residence system who are writing this article, The following are representa» tive quotes taken verbatim irom the 5&3 questionnaires; the first group deals with the gen- eral topic or alt-campus living, and the second represents more specific concerns, principally the need ror independence, A CourtireySet girls a, spoiled? % Absolutely! i SCARLET AND BLACK privacy, quiet, olicampus so- clal life including both students and iaculty members, and a rather explosive dislike, in some cases, or the dormitory system. READ FOR YOURSELF: Comment {mm a present apart- ment dweller: (senior male) “i am living on campus to an apartment right now, and I much prefer it to living in the dormitory. i think that when everything is added up, like rent, telephone, electric- ty, lurniture, etc, 1 end up spending the same amount of money i did on a dorm room. However, the privacy, quiet, and feeling of real in- dependence make all campus living much more desirable and enjoyable." General comments: "I belive that restricting 20 or 11 year old adults to dumb (Dry life is unfair and inhibit- ing. The school is being un~ usually conservative and simp< ly pig-headed in not admit ting that at least juniors and seniors should have the op- portunity. Social life doesn't have to be so limited and controlled when the adminis- tration is dealing with students of the calibre usually found at Grinnell." (freshman male) "Students are young adults whose present vocation hap— pens to be that or going to college As young adults, they should be permitted to choose not only their vocation, but also their place or residence." (senior female) “Up to a point dorm life can be beneficial in that the in< dlvidual can rationally decide, through discussion with many diiierent people, on the type of life he wants for himself. But, after an individual has decided how he Wants to live, it is just as necessary for him, in a learning situation such as an academic com- munity, to test his ideas and to find out whether they are realistic {or him. If they are not realistic, it’s better to ad just now than later."
