The Concrete Connection Located on the far northwest part of campus, Keenan and Stanford Halls proudly share their positions among the list of popular male dorms. Several contributing factors such as athletics, social activities, and tremendous hall spirit make them two favorites of the North Quadders. Keenan residents, also known as the Keenanites, typify the meaning of spirit on campus. Their frequent tailgaters in the fall and infamous dorm theme parties such as their party to celebrate the arrival of Spring earn them this reputation. One of the most popular Keenan produced and sponsored social affairs is the annual Keenan Revue. Attracting students from all ends of the campus, the Revue provides an opportunity for the residents to perform some of the most original and entertaining acts in a show of its kind. The Studs , as Stanford ' s residents are affectionately called, are not to be underestimated by the relatively low profile they maintain on campus. In fact, they are a group of actively involved men both within their dorm and arou nd campus. Like their neighbors, the Studs are also popular for their annual theme parties top of the list being their Tacky Party. In addition, they boast some of the more infamous section parties and happy hours on campus. Both dorms host several competitive interhall sports such as hockey, baseball, and football. Stanford boasts of its 1983 record for taking the title of champions in Spring interhall volleyball, baseball, and soccer.

In walking past Keenan and Stanford, one may see that by the very nature of the architecture of the dorms, they are literally two of a kind. Yet more important are the similarities within the athletic oriented and fun-spirited residents that live in these dorms. - Joanne Richardson LIGHTS, CAMERA, ACTION!
