A)e Ha to offer
coed living floors
By Charles Johnson
An open living environment for both sexes will be offered on
at least two floors of Abel Hall nsxt year, according to Elizabeth
Griego, complex program director at Abel-Sandoz Residence
Halls:
The second, third and possibly eighth floors of Abel Hall will
be converted to house both men and women. The opportunity
for coeducational living units arose from the differentiated
housing proposal passed by the regents last month.
Griego emphasized that it will not be "a big sex orgy thing. I
feel they (floor residents) have the right attitude. The floors
chosen demonstrated that they wanted increased opportunities of
friendship with people of the opposite sex, and a different type
of environment."
Representatives from second and third floors and, alternately,
eighth floor will be meeting in women's residence halls this
weekend to explain the proposal and recruit women residents,
Griego said.
She said she was not certain enough women could be found to
fill the 40 spots on each floor. Each floor in Abel Hall
accommodates 80 people 40 men and 40 women on the coed
floors. If enough residents apply, eighth floor will also be coed.
"I think there will be more men that want to live on the floors
than there is room," she said. "I think we'll have enough women
for two floors, but probably not enough for three.
"But the response has been pretty good so far," she added. "I
think the chance for involvement is great." '
Rick Johnson, second floor student assistant (SA) said, "We're
hopeful the housing office thinks we'll have trouble but we're
hopeful we won't have "any trouble at all getting enough women."
Johnson, one yof four SA's for the coeducational floors, said
Abel Hall was chosen for the experiment in coeducational living
because it has two wings with separate bathrooms and lounges.
The wings are separated by fire doors, which will be open
except between 1 a.m. and 1 1 a.m., when there will be no
visitation. The proposal, approved this month by the regents,
allows for only 14 hours of coed visitation.
Griego said not having 24 -hour visitation would present "a
hassle to work around." Some floors would not be able to live
with the hassles, sh; said.
"Each floor interested presented arguments to their RD
(Residence Director) and myself," she said. "Second and third
floors indicated they would be willing to work around the .
hassles."
Johnson said students wanting to apply should indicate it on
the sheet that comes with the housing contracts, which should be
available this week. Students will be able to list the priorities they
want considered for their residence assignment for next year,
such as choice of hall and certain visitation policies.
Students wanting to live on a coed floor should list second or
third floor Abel Hail as their first priority. They also' should list
the associated living priority and if they have a preference, they
may list a specific room number.1 '1 r
