How You Live Since your environment is a big factor in determining the woman you are,your choice of a home at SUI and your adjustment to your new surroundings are important steps. Rooms open to undergraduate women include those in Burge and Currier Halls, approved private homes, and sorority houses (open only to upperclasswomen). In any of these environments, the experience of group living awaits you. In Currier or Burge, your room will come equipped with single or bunk beds, study desks and lamps, gay draperies and bedspreads. Dresser and closet space is also ready for you, but keep the needs to your new roommates in mind before storing your wardrobe. You'll probably want to ass individual touches to your room during the course of 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 dormitory. You'll want to be especially careful to keep in mind simple courtesies in using the telephone in your dorm room, the combination-lock mail box you'll share with your roommates, and the laundry and sewing facilities of the dorm. Appliances such as electric coffee makers, steam irons, or popcorn poppers can be used in the kitchenettes and ironing rooms of each floor in the dorms. A number of cheerful lounges are provided in each dorm for your leisure moments of television-watching, piano-playing, or just relaxing. Soft drink vending machines in the ironing and recreation rooms provide refreshments for these study breaks. Extra dorm conveniences you'll appreciate include self-service elevators, clean bed linen once a week, and maid service twice a week. You can enjoy good food and a cheerful atmosphere three times a day in the Currier and Burge dining halls. However, if you feel hunger pangs between meals, both dorms have snack bars with a wide variety of "goodies". You can purchase magazines and other small items for your personal needs in the dorms, too. No matter what your talents may be, you'll be encouraged to put them to good use in dormitory activities. Your unit chairman is always happy to help you increase your proficiency through practice, whether it be in music, journalism, intramurals, or any other activity. There may even be a spot for you in your dormitory's governing body, if responsibility is your byword. Your dorm counselor is always there to give sign outs, advise on problems, or just chat if you feel lonely. Each dormitory has a nurse on duty in the building, so medical attention is near at hand for your below-par days 6
