An organization which became official Uie last week
of fall term has had spectacular success in implement
inn its ideas, and its president is expecting even more
success in the future.
The organization is the Inter-Dorm Council, and
nearly every major change in University dormitories
this year has been the result of 1DC work.
According to llal Klngslien, 1DC president, the pur
poses of 1DC lie in promoting anil improving dormitory
living and in serving as a line of communication be
tween students and the housing policy committee and
the housing office.
HUCCESS
That the group has succeeded is evident from the
policy changes resulting from IDC's efforts,
"Maybe it seems minor, but giving students the choice
of meat or lish on Friday was something we worked
for," Kingslien said. t
I DC was instrumental in opening up men’s dormitory
u
lounges to women, First the group took a poll and
found that only two men'* dorms opposed the idea of
allowing girls in the lounges. After researching the
situation, IDC made a resolution which it sent to the
housing committee, which independently researched the
question, finally passing the resolution.
CONSEQUENCES
The effect of the opening had further-reaching con
sequences when, in legalizing the lounge openings, it
became evident that similar concessions would have to
he made to fraternities and men's co-ops.
"Opening the lounges was one of the most obvious
things that needed changing," Kingslicn says.
IOC is composed of every dormitory president on
campus. "Previously the functions of dorm presidents
were pretty social, but this is changing,” Kingslien
said. "Now he will have more responsibilities, whereas
a lot of dorm presidents in the past have been pretty
apathetic. We want people next year who will want to
get involved, who will want a voice in student govern
ment.
"We want to become an information source for the
rest of the campus. We’ve set up an effective line of
communication between dorm residents and the admin
istration, and we feel we can be of help to the rest of
the campus,” Kingslien said.
What’s on tap for the future?
Kingslien hopes to get phones installed in every
dormitory room in the near future. "It should be
cheaper than current private phone rates,” Kingslien
observed.
Seminar rooms in dormitory basements is another
I DC interest. "Let’s face it,’’ Kingslien said. "By about
midnight, someone is asleep in just about every room.
Where can the students go? Seminar rooms would cer
tainly alleviate this problem.”
Kingslien is emphatic on the possibilities of IDC.
'They’re practically limitless. Next year, we're going to
broaden our scope, and we hope to do bigger things.”
Do dormitory residents appreciate the changes
brought about by IDC?
Ask a fish-hating I’rotestant some Friday.

discrimination session agreed that
discrimination is wrong.
"I was pleased to see that
the national organization recog
nizes the need for individual au
tonomy in discrimination prac
tices," Houston said.
He said the national organiza
tion is in agreement with the
Oregon Legislature's ruling that
all campus housing for students
■ under 21 must be non discrimina
tory. "Individual chapters have
the right and responsibility to
comply,” Houston said.
The national organization
agreed at the conclave that un
1 less chapters declared in writ
ing that they weren't discrimin
ating, the college or university
should investigate the chapter's
membership practices.
Membership selectivity certifi
cates have been filed with Uni
versity President Arthur S. Firm
ining by all fraternities on this
campus, Houston said.
