Thurston Hall, more commonly known as the Zoo,” is probably the dorm with the most activity. From fire alarms at 1 :00, 2:00, and 5:00 a.m. in the morning, to floor parties, dorm council and its programs such as the ‘‘Gong Show,” block parties, and floors competing with each other in co-ed sports, special interest floors such as pre-med and pre-law. Thur- ston is a dorm of unending chaos, excitement, noise, people and frustra- tions. Mostly occupied by freshmen, life in Thurston is a totally new social environment clashing with the adjust- ment to college studies. For a fresh- man it is an ideal dorm because it is an introduction to every possible aspect of college life. 17
