Living It Up ABOVE: Bean bags are essential for comfort- able living. Photo by Reginald Samuel. Where am I going to live? Now more than ever the various op- tions for housing offer a stu- dent several choices for where to live. One hundred years ago, the writers of the PANDO- RA spoke proudly of the male dormitory in old college, a building now occupied by the offices of teachers and admin- istrators. Today students can live in apartments, condomini- ums, duplexes, and houses, or they can choose from many dif- ferent types of dormitories such as single-sex or coed, minimal or maximum visiting hours, even international dor- mitories. There are of course advantages and disadvantages to each form of housing. Dor- mitories are the most econom- ical choice since fees include everything and with the conve- nience of the meal plan stu- dents choosing this option have an almost worry-free situ- ation. Dorms also offer good opportunities for meeting peo- ple. Apartments and condo- miniums have obvious advan- tages too. Students appreciate more privacy and indepen- dence despite the more costly fares. Also dining halls are in- convenient for many off-cam- pus residents which makes it necessary to shop and prepare one ' s own food, some love it, others dread or avoid it. Du- plexes and houses offer the same situations as condomini- ums and apartments but with more roommates and perhaps some occasional yardwork.

On lookers wondered at the choice of red brick for the struc- ture, since in every other building on Ag campus yellow brick has been used. (PANDORA 1937) The variety of housing options of- fered students many choices of inde- pendence, economy, and conven- ience. While no one lived in luxurious Memorial Hall some did live in luxurious townhouses, while other opted for basic ' roughing it ' ' in the dorms.
