Reminiscences Of An Old Co-ed In the good old days of about forty years ago, when the heavy chain was pulled across the entrance to the campus (at that time about forty yards from the flag pole) and locked every night at eight o ' clock, and West Hall was boys and East Hall was girls — and the twain weren ' t supposed to meet — and Sanford and Lewis were not, and the post office and Library were in the Administration building, and the little store was in a cubby hole (and across from it, a barber shop) at the old side entrance to the Dining Hall — well, in those days boys were boys, and girls were restri It was a time without blue jeans . . .a time when sun-bathing was a never on Sundays and smoKing was forbidden on the Administration building ' s steps.

Bare feet and shorts were no-no ' s and talking from windows was considered cause for a major call down. Girls and boys caught lounging or sprawling on the grass by the ponds were severely reprimanded. No male and female could sit together in the library without written permission from their parents.
