Gallagher Hall, with its previous reputation as being a rowdy, all-freshman dorm with its share of vandalism and discipline problems, discarded its old nickname, The Zoo, and donned an optimistic new name, The Country Club. Gallagher experienced extensive changes, according to Mary Beth Munro, head resident adviser. These included physical changes such as painting, new carpeting and the addition of lounges on each of the five floors plus a change in personality and atmosphere. No longer an all-freshman dorm, residents included up- perclassmen, transfer students and professional students, along with 24 freshmen. According to Munro, the general attitude is one of relaxation and solitude with little or no disciplinary ac- tion necessary. There is an air of calmness and good feeling as you walk through Gallagher, Munro said. 21

CEC The aged brick dwelling at 610 N. 21 St. was established in 1978 as the CEC (Curriculum Extension College) house. The building is well-worn and holds many warming memories for its residents. The CEC program is more than just an alternative for 17 students to the dorm life. CEC has a seminar program designed to provide students with interdisciplinary perspectives on a social, historical or theological aspect. Many students increase in sensitivity and develop a greater awareness about themselves and others, and the society in which they live. Students say it is like a family, living, learning, and growing together. 22
