Newest University Housing Plan
Provides Homes for 72 Coeds
Slaking their classes on time as well as do
ing their own housekeeping, 72 university
women still find time to have fun and to keep
their scholarship well above the average. These
women live in the four women's co-operatives,
product of the newest housing movement on
the campus.
University organized, the houses are uni
versity owned. First of the houses was estab
lished in the fall of 1032. Before that time
there had been two attempts to give university
women pleasant, economical housing.
Organized for uppcrclass women, the first
co-op. Howard hall, was opened in the fall of
lfl:2. The following year ilson hall was es
tablished for freshmen and sophomore women.
Later Kosa Ronton hall and Loomis hall were
begun. Loomis hall is situated on the ag
campus.
Women in the co-ops rent the houses from
the university and pay for their own heat,
light, water, and gas. Each resident pays t-0
a month, making the cost of living in the house
for a year $1S0. The total expenditure is from
one-third to one-half less than living expenses
anywhere else on the campus.
An Hour a Day.
In addition to the $20 a month payment,
each woman is required to give one hour's
work daily for the upkeep of the house. Ac
tually, however, most of the residents finish
their tasks in much less time. All the house
keeping, with the exception of the cooking and
the very heavy work, is done by the residents.
Excellence of character and high scholar
mary bases for admittance to a co-op. On ap
ship together with economic need are the pri
plying for admission, each woman must sub
mit to the office of the dean of women three
recommendations from persons, not relatives,
who are capable of giving information con
maintain an 80 average if she wishes to re
ceming her. Once admitted, the student must
main in residence.
For the first four years following its es
tablishment, Howard hall set the scholastic
pace for organized women's houses. Last year,
Loomis hall, the ag campus co-operative, led
all other houses.
Activities.
Activities as well as scholarship are empha
sized in the co-ops. From among the residents
have come attendants to the iVy Day queen,
Mortar Boards, Phi Beta Kappas, publication
editors, and numerous presidents and .other of
ficers of student organizations.
Preceding the co-ops five houses were
taken over by the university for use as low
cost living quarters for unaffiliated women.
These cottages were situated at about 13th and
K where the old infirmary and the social sci
ence annex" now stand. Cost for rooms ranged
from $36 to .$."i0 a semester. Residents took
their meals in the Temple cafeteria.

much thinking.
