HOUSING EXPANDS Phase 1... Phase 2... or Phase 3...? No, this isn’t a question asked on a game show to win a prize, it’s the choice provided for BCCC housing students. Those who chose to pay $25 more per semester may live in the Phase 3, better known as the earth-housing. These units house four people who share a bathroom but have two beds per room. These were completed in time for the 1982- 83 academic year. Although they have no carpeting, there is more floor space. Phase two has four large bedrooms in each unit with one bath. Usually there are only two students in each room, al¬ though the rooms were designed to accomodate three in case of overflow. A central lobby area is the feature of Phase 1 units. Off of this room are again four bedrooms and one bath. Both ph¬ ases 1 and 2 have carpeting except in the bathroom. Along with the earth-housing, a new “commons building” was built for all housing students. This houses washers, dryers, a television room, meeting room, game room and kitchenette. Students may also get together in tha main lounge or stereo room. Rick Hanke, director of student housing resigned in 1982 to accept a similiar position at the University of Texas at El Paso. The new coordinator and assistant coordinator of stu¬ dent housing selected were Jerry and Lisa Ney. Campus housing added new earth-sheltered units this past year. This phase houses four people per unit. Two students share each room with a com¬ mon bathroom for four. Deanna Barnett takes time from her studies to write a letter home. This room is an example of a Phase 1 unit Rick Hanke, director of student housing collects cans gathered by students in a contest sponsored by RHA, “Get off your Cans.” The win¬ ning unit received three large pizzas for their efforts. 28

Can I slice it in? Rusty Coker of student housing enjoys a game of pool in the new commons area. The commons building provides laundry and kitchen areas while also having a TV room and meeting room. A large-screen television was bought by the RHA this year which can be watched in the meeting room. Other activites during the year included ping-pong and video games. Is that me?
