Visitation
in Brannock dorm which has
no lounge; in fact, it doesn’t
even have a water fountain.
Where are we supposed to
entertain guests? In the
library or what? ”
KARI GOOD of Harris
onburg, Pa., said, “Visita
tion is terrible. I feel by the
time you’re old enough to
go to coUege, you don’t
need someone telling you
when someone can come
into your room.
“But students need to be
considerate to other people
on the hall and be consid
erate to the roommate,” she
added. “Certain hours
We’ll do your
laundry.

should be set up for daily
visitation as long as it
doesn’t get out of hand. As
long as a guy is in your I
room and he’s not bothering |
anyone, who is it hurting?”
KEITH EBERT of|
Kernersville, said, “The
majority of education you
get at college is outside of
the classroom. College pre
pares you for the world. Its
function is to make you
a more rounded person so
you’re better able to react in
situations with people. Visit
ation rules as they are now
are depriving students of
probably the most essential
part of education.
“The visitation rules have
transformed the RCs into
resident enforcers. There-^
fore, I believe the SGA and
student body should do
everything that is possible to
have these rules changed if
not this year, then next,”
said Ebert.
