Foreign Studeni Committee
Rejects International Dorm
The proposed International
Dormitory with hnIf foreign-half
American student* ha* been re
jected for the present by the
Foreign Student Advisory Com
mittee, according to chairman Jim
Cloutier.
Among the reasons for the re
jection, Cloutier listed lack of
flexibility and freedom for the for
eign students, Also, the students
would still be required to cat
University foods, rather than
those from their own countries.
"ONE OF the objectives of an
international living organization
would be to give the students
an opportunity to cook and eat
their own foods as well as to
serve their American friends,”
said Cloutier.
The committee's original goals
in creating an International
House were to provide Inexpen
sive living for foreign students,
create a half American-half for
eign student house, provide for a
selection system and eliminate
isolation of foreign students.
