"Small World" Your environent is a big factor in determining your success at SUI. Your choice of a home and your adjustment to your new surroundings are important steps. Rooms open to undergraduate Currier Halls, approved private homes, and sorority houses (open only to upperclasswomen). In any of these environments the experience of group living awaits you. You'll find that life in the dorms is a "Small World" of its own within the large world of SUI. In Currier or Burge your room will be equipped with single or bunk beds, study desks and lamps, attractive draperies, and bedspreads to complement your walls. Dresser and closet space is also ready for you, but keep the needs of your new roommates in mind before storing your wardrobe. You will probable want to add touches of individuality to your roo during the year, but again, it's best to consult your "roomies" before making any major decisions. Cooperation and sharing become especially important in the group living of the dorm. You'll want to be careful to keep in mind simple courtesies in using the telephone in your room, the combination-lock mail box you'll share with your roommates, and in the sewing machines, ironing boards and irons, and washers and dryers, which are subject to heavy use. Appliances such as electric coffee makers, steam irons, or popcorn poppers may be used in kitchenettes or pressing rooms on each of the floors. A number of cheerful lounges are provided in each dorm for your leisure moments of television-watching, piano-playing, or just relaxing. During certain hours of the day and evening, men visitors may be entertained in the ground floor lounges. Vending machines in the pressing and recreation rooms provide milk, cokes, or other refreshments for those study breaks. Extra dorm conveniences you'll appreciate include self-service elevators, clean bed linen once a week, and room-cleaning service twice a week. Burge and Currier also each have a small library and study rooms. When meal time rolls around everyone gathers in the dining rooms where you enjoy good food and a cheerful atmosphere. However, if you feel hunger pangs between meals, Currier has a snack bar with a wide variety of tempting foods. At the main desk in Currier and in a small store in Burge you may purchase small personal items and send out your laundry to the local cleaners. The beautiful new Carnival Room in Burge serves the hungry-between-meals coeds and their friends, couples on coke or study dates, and groups seeking pleasant surroundings. 6
