McCarthy hall I • »•• .r i y . { B If the family situation is your type of living, McCarthy dorm is the place for you. McCarthy consists of three floors — the first floor houses national and international exchange students. The second floor claims the regular crowd, and the third echoes mainly of graduate students and student teachers. McCarthy is a 24-hour quiet dorm, so if you just listen, the first floor is a great place to learn about many different cultures and customs. The second floor, which is largely inhabited by West Chester University ' s characteristic music majors, allows you to follow native customs; most who live there do so in typical West Chester student style. And by climbing just one more flight of stairs, you may be confronted by the older and wiser who are very helpful when you have questions on a particular subject. The 258-person population of McCarthy is a small one by West Chester dormitory standards, but actually it is just one big, friendly family. 24

RAMSEY HALL In contrast to dorms which some residents would label gray-aired, the Ramsey lobby desk sports a large, colorful banner naming Mike Renzi RA of the month for December (out of a possible ten RAs and eight DAs). Sprinkled around the lobby are signs declaring pizza sales, dorm-sponsored presentations (including November ' s ' Off-Campus Life and Time Management ), dorm council meetings, a Jail-In, and a certificate naming Ray Rocchio ' s first floor as the winner of the Family Feud Game, October 16, 1984. Ramsey has also sponsored Christmas caroling, a program on self-defense, a program by the registrar, and VCR nights. In time, an infirmary may be set up in the basement. Who knows what more there is to come? H i i 1 .1 ' A W 1 Mr ' 26
