Hosp has
V housing article
One of the features in the cur
rent issue of the monthly Nebras
ka Alumnus, Issued this weekend,
is an article on housing for women
students written by Dean of Wom
en Helen M. Hosp.
Miss Hosp wrote chiefly of the
need of improvement of housing
facilities at the university for
women students. Praising the new
dormitory, she claimed that much
more work of this kind is left to
lie done because of her firm belief
that a student's life outside of the
i classroom is just as important to
I the university as her life in. Miss
Hosp also pointed out that stand
ard rules for all types of rooming
,- houses must be set and followed
for effectiveness.
Many other interesting facts

dence hall will be built this winter
and named after Don L. Love, who
generously contributed $55,000
toward the building of one of the
recently completed units of Carrie
