This IS not a beer distributor ' s display: it ' s an Eichenauer beer drinker ' s collection. Livin ' Dorm Style tudents here often complain about the puritanical rules and regulations that govern them in their early adulthood, but few realize what Westminister was like just twenty years ago. In 1958, girls had to be locked in the dorm by 9 p.m. It was the college ' s attempt to protect them from the evils lurking in the night. This year the Student Association and Board of Trustees reviewed the current intervisitation policy and the Dean of Students ' Office considered 24-hour open lobbies in the women ' s dorms. Neatness is not an attribute of every college student. Two decades ago, however, students had their rooms inspected weekly. If cleanliness is next to Godliness, there are a lot of students in serious trouble. Despite all the college ' s efforts to instill moral and social values, there were as many (if not more) college pranks in 1958 as there are today. A group of students in the mid-fifties took apart a car and reassembled it in the President ' s Office one everning. The pranks of today include shaving gun grenades, super glued door knobs, and foreign matter found under the sheets. 24 Eich isn ' t the only dorm with can collec- tors. Russell ' s Bruce Marchionda has his fair share.
