Environmental, study dorms
among new housing proposals
An environmental residence hall for students
interested in outdoor activities is one of several
new options proposed for University students
who live on campus.
The proposals were prepared for housing
director Dan Williams by a committee of housing
and student services staff members and students
from the Residence Hall Governance Committee.
Decisions are expected soon.
"We firmly believe the University can offer
educational enrichment through the programs
offered in the residence halls,” says Marjorie
Ramey, assistant housing director and committee
chairer. She said the committee proposals
represent an attempt to increase the types of
learning opportunities available.
The proposed options include:
• An environmental dorm, run in cooperation
with agencies and departments such as the Out
door Club, YMCA and the University envir
onmental studies program. The dorm would give
students access to a broad range of outdoor
experiences such as hiking, skiing and sailing as
well as ecological study.
• A quiet dorm, combining a study envir
onment with programs from the Learning
Resource Center and academic aids. More than
one such dorm could be offered, depending on
student interest.
• Mixed class dorms for men and women,
including freshmen now housed in all-freshmen
halls. The opportunity for older students to serve
as role models for freshmen is seen as one
benefit.
• Coed freshmen dorms with men and women
on separate floors. They would share governance
and recreational activities. Similar coed dorms
have been available for upperclassmen and
graduate students for the last three years.
All-upperclass and all-freshman dorms will
continue as options, both with single sex and
coed options, Ramey says. The proposed envir
onmental and quiet dorms would be coed and
open to all classes.
“Coed living offers students a chance to live
in a more natural environment, more like their
homes. Evidence from around the country
suggests that coed halls tend to have less
vandalism and rowdiness," Ramey says, noting
that coed dorms are offered at most Oregon
colleges for both freshmen and upperclassmen.
Excluding family housing, the University has
47 halls — wings or sections of dorms where
residents share in governance, recreational and
educational activities. Approximately 60 to 70
students live in each hall. Two-thirds of the
students who live in dorms are freshemn, the rest
upperclassmen and graduate students.
