Dorm Life Dorm surroundings aid student coexistence A studentis activities apart from his academic efforts are equally important to his education. In dormitory surroundings a student learns to co-exist in an amiable and active manner in relationship to other students. In his personal room he learns to share the available space and respect his roommate's inter- ests. ln the realm of the recreation areas and lobbies the stu- dent is educated in the inter-relations with other dorm habi- tants. A student is introduced to the world's diversity through the people he meets and gains knowledge ofthe world through them. HCJC provides dorm housing for men students in Elland Hall while women are housed in Kent Hall. Those students with medical curricula such as records technicians are allowed to live in Davis Hall at South Hospital. With these housing areas HCJC still suffers a shortage and the administration is striving to meet the demand with the construction of additional dorm space west of Kent Hall. 7' 5 4 A

Housing partments provides leisure 8L freedom One aspect of student life that lends an air of leisure and a chance for greater diversion is that of apartment living. With the consent and approval of HCJC's Housing Staff a student may live off-campus with minimum supervision. Many stu- dents take advantage of this priviledge and find it to be most satisfactory. Of course, one ofthe more prominent aspects of apartment liv- ,Hp ing is the chance for greater privacy and tranquility, although v many students institute a partnership for convenience and economy. In an apartment a student can exercise his creativity to a rea- sonable extent and produce an atmosphere which would be an enhancement to his general activities and possibly to his aca- demic improvement. Some such renovations would prove to be prohibitive ifa student would implement them into dorm life. For those married students apartment life allows the continua- tion ofan uninterrupted family demeanor. Students of any college seek ways to relieve the pressure ofschool. Mark Gef- fert and Steve Ferguson have discovered that poker does that. Collectlvely' apartment hvmg can be most fulmlmg for a Stu- dent wishing to exert the effort to bring it to fruition. 20
