People should start doing something instead of just complaining about the things they don’t like.” - Ruth Hart “Actually they’re not to bad-1 don’t live in them anymore.” - Stu Nudelman “Who is Stu Nudelman?” - D. Wilson “I think as little as possible about them-1 just use my room to hide and sleep in.” - Craig Eubanks “Living in these dorms is an experience. They are far too liberal. However they are nice dorms and are pleasant to live in. Occasionally they are too noisy and the maintenance service is lousy. So is the heating.” - Brian Cummings “I agree completely with that nudelman character- the dorms are not too bad-1 am moving out tomorrow.” - Karl Kutlas “In the High School dorms if you leave the other people alone it’s just fine.” - Jeff Abbatt “Because of the new policies concerning noise, — the dorm seems to be much better. But I think the problem of noise could be solved & each individual would accept the responsibility to consider the other people living in the dorm.” - Murray Kaufman, R.A., Moore Dorm “It’s alright, a little cold sometimes. It’s a cold place to live.” - David Winslow “1st floor of D Dorm is great. Techies and musicians and we get along beautifully.”- Walter Braxton “I like living in the dorm. I don’t usually get any work done at home and here, I don’t have the hassles involved in renting an off campus apartment; cooking, maintenance etc.” - Mike Ber nard “I dig the people side of living here, but I could really get into temperature control.” - Roberta Washington “It’s a nice place to visit but I wouldn’t like to live there.” - Kim Longacre “If you like living in a cage it’s great. Probably the rooms on Devils Island are bigger- at least they give you towel racks which you won’t find in the college dorms. The only humidity you get in the winter is through the cracks when it snows. Thank God for modem technology.” - Mike Shindleman “College Dorm life is great — sometimes.” - Peter Girvin
