3 moves out tonight & we wonder whom we'll get. We have a corner room on the front second floor of the women's dormitory. The room is a little "barny" but the mocking birds sing all day in the trees just outside. We have the three beds, a dresser, a floor lamp, table, 3 chairs, big closet and lavatory. There are nice showers & tubs & toilets just around the corner. Also nice lounges & writing places in the building. The courses this first week were intensely interesting and vital. They were exhausting, too. Five hours a day of 50 minute lectures by the very top people. For example, our lecture on First Aid & Water Safety was by the man who helped start the whole thing about 25 years ago. I have to have a size 14 uniform & they are out just now, so I'll have to wait a bit. The problem of possessions is most confusing, I don't need the black shoes or hot water bottle so quickly now, but
