Diane Kandel Small houses have a way of filling the social and psychic needs of their residents that larger dorms seldom achieve. Girls on Birchwood sec- ond say, When you have troubles you go to the steps and just sit there until someone comes by to talk about it. In Birchwood step-sitters aren't ignored for long. To meet other social needs the same girls have set up a combination cof- feehouse lounge in the basement where we can cook and have boys. Small houses are still like dorms in many ways, but problems like noise and hours are handled more personally. If you make noise at least people come over and tell you to shut up instead of going to tell the housemother that room 19 is making noise again. Girls who would freely violate hours at a larger dorm don't have that luxury in places like Birchwood. Their resident assistant, a student, knows everyone personally and persists in trusting each girl to come in on time. One girl who was having a fight with her boyfriend asked for a few minutes grace at 11:30. Sure, said her RA, Come in when you're ready and I'll be praying for you. Even the admittedly shabby facilities of the houses don't seem to bother most of the people who live there. One Birchwood girl aptly illus- trated the difference between small houses and the larger dormitories when she said, At least when we look out the window we see trees and homes instead of the gym and that heating plant. 24
