Senior girls get back into the old grind at the senior house, newly located on 9th street. In addition to three women ' s dormitories, Monmouth girls moved into two houses in 1963. The French House, two blocks east of the campus, opened for the first time with ten students and their director, Miss Lerond, living and speaking French to- gether. The senior house was moved just north of the art building for its second year of existence. Girls in the French House are busily rearranging furniture in their new home on Broadway. i.1 ' Freshmen take time out to become acquainted before organizing their rooms in the refmished cellar of McMichael.
