Corbin The Grade Escape N kxx.. . ,,,,,.....---H-f by Carla Krause As you pour over the pages of Solomon's Organic Chemistry, the bass thum-thum-thump of your neighbor's new stereo system revererates through the walls. In the corridor, your floormates are engaged in an active game of tackle frisbee, and from across the room you hear an occasional crack as your roommate pops open sunflower seeds while talking on the phone and watching Dynasty. For many, along with the conviences of living in a residential dorm comes the inconvenience of finding a quiet place to study. Fortunately, both the University and the indivi- dual dorms offer a variety of great escapes . Most halls offer study lounges on each floor-and several offer to their residents academic resource centers in which books, tapes, magazines and test files are on hand. A second alternative to the studious minded is the various reading rooms and libraries found in the campus buildings. From the most secluded library of Mallott Hall to the lighter, more social atmosphere of Watson, most students are able to find a suitable escape place-even if it means tak- ing the chance on being lost forever within the great stacks of Watson.

Corbin, built in 1923, was the oldest dorm at KU. Many or Corbin's residents were daughters and granddaugh- ters of former residents. GSP opened in 1955. The two buildings were connected by a tunnel. The 1986-87 theme was Get in the Swing of Things , and the women became involved in many ways-floor parties, date dashes, screw your roomates, a Christmas Formal, and a trick-or-treat for children from the community. Most GSP-Corbin women were freshman and a large percentage of them went through sorority rush and moved into sororities after their freshman year. GSP-Corbin provided many facilities for the women such as rooms for typing, sewing, exercise, and computer programming. Sundecks, fireplaces, student kitchens, and recreation were also available.
