Iphaofdcn ia STUDY ROOMS updat ed I by Lini I inrisay Pnrtpr In pn|)ar,uion lor its 73lh anniversary in 2005, Alpha of Clovia began H ' n() atini4 its chaptei house. Tlie house, built in 1967, still rellected nian 1970s aesthetic fealmes. President Melissa Eberl said. Diuinw the summer, the first stage of the renovations began with the stud rooms. Ten rooms were remodeled, including replacing the windows to increase heat efficiency. The second and third stages were scheduled for spring. Stage Two invohed impi oving exterior featmes — the backyaid drain- age svstem was replaced so the women would he able to hold more acti ities outdoors, and the front entr) was remodeled. Stage Three focused on the furnishings and wall coverings in the public areas of the house. Kelli Cox, who represented the Clo ia Alumni Board on the renovation committee, said the motivation for the renovations came from the 75th anniversarv, but the house needed improve- ments in many areas. We are the first Clovia house, Cox, associate of planning and analysis, said. There were four of us, so we are pretty proud that we ' ve been around 75 years. We want to make sure the house looks nice and it gets updated from the 1960s, when it was built. The study rooms featured new shelving and bigger desks. Ebert, senior in mass communications, said the remodeled study rooms were a vast impro ' ement from the previous desks. They are more space efficient, Andra Schlagel, junior in fisheries and wildlife biology, said. They are a lot more conducive to studying. Schlagel said the Clovias were pleased with the study rooms makeovers and looked forward to the remaining reno ' ations. They will make our house lotik nicer and up-to-date, she said. I ' m excited about seeing the other parts of the house. Cox said all three stages of the reno ations cost $400,000. and most of the funding came from donors and aknnni contributions. Several places in the house will be named after prestigious Clovias or donors, Cox said. There are many study rooms named after a group of people. That is something we haven ' t been able to do before. Becky Abramovitz Leavenworth. Kan. Animal Sciences and Industry • SO Bethany Adams Liberal, Kan.
