CUMNOCCUPANTS' SHERRY SOMMERVILLE, Resident Advisor A happy, cheerful atmosphere con- stantly prevails among the girls who are fortunate enough to reside in the Cumnock dormitory. Large, airy rooms are furnished them for their sojourn. For relaxation and recrea- tion a spacious lounge and sun porch are provided, as well as two fine ten- nis courts. Many activities are furnished the girls. They have many social func- tions, such as hostess nights when they invite outside guests, picnics, and other outings. The hostess nights are strictly formal affairs, and are quite festive, aided by dinners in the dining room. The young hos- tesses and their guests then adjourn to the main lounge where fascinating NINA IO REEVES, President discussions and readings are given by various members. Quite often the girls are entertained by Mrs. Sylvia Brooks who recites in a fascinating manner. Dormitory activities and life are quite capably supervised by Miss Sherry Somerville, Miss Helen Crane Hardison, Miss Faye Stinson, and Miss Marie Brown. The atmosphere in the dormitory tends to give the girls a high sense of responsibility and cooperation that they will find highly beneficial to them not only during their stay at Cumnock, but for the remainder of their lives. All in all, when a girl has lived in the Cum- nock dormitory she has thoroughly benefited by the experience. 41
