'X-.pf ' w t A new era of on-campus living has begun. Starting the fall semester of the 1986-87 year, The University of Akron expanded its Residence Hall Program to include a co-ed facility at Gallucci Hall. Due to the acquisition of the Brown Street facility designed for men, it was necessary to reassign other facilities. The opportunity to go co-ed became possible in an effort to maintain a male- to-female ratio in the residence halls. Gallucci Hall had been housing 450 men for the past four years. Since turn- ing co-ed, Gallucci now houses ap- proximately 250 men and 200 women. At the end of the 1985-86 year, women living in the residence halls were given P17165 50W12fMhY1q6 Co-ed Residence Halls the option to live in Gallucci Hall the following term. Living at Gallucci is similar to living in other residence halls. Private bath- rooms and a little extra room provide more privacy. Laura Donovon, a resi- dent assistant at Gallucci, says there is a community feeling throughout the building. After getting used to living co-ed, the men and women come to rely on each other to be around. A co-ed residence hall is something new for The University of Akron. Nel- son Wittenmyer, a RA at Gallucci, ex- pressed concern about the image Gal- lucci projects to those who do not live there. The program here seems to be going well in its first year. Every resi- dence hall has problems. Being the first year of co-ed living, the positive as- pects rather than the negative should be emphasized. Steve Watts, a student living in Gal- lucci, recognized the positive aspects of co-ed living and plans to return next year. The guys don't seem to behave as wild as they would if girls weren't here. Would more co-ed living facilities exist on Akron's campus? jay Hershey, Director of Residence Halls, respond- ed, lf the need dictates the move to more co-ed facilities, Grant Resident Center could be a possible site. - Susan Andrews
