aid at the University.

formation on future plans
collected from a sample of
seniors at the time of graduation

Revisions
University Park, Pa. - (LP.)-
The director of residence hall
programs at the Pennsylvania
State University states that his
office is emphasizing the new
direction future residence hall
staffing will take and deem
phasizing the disappearance of
the resident advisers.
Charles Spence said his office is
using the 'development approach'
to residence hall staffing instead
of the older idea of 'in loco
parentis.' Students look for help
through their peer culture, he
said. "We need not take people
who are part of this culture. It is
more relevant to deal with
students as developing people."-
According to Lorraine O'Hara,
associate director of residence
hall programs, "many students
today= only -see the resident ad
viser to borrow the ping gong
equipment and just going up to
the floors to talk is artificial.
Students tend to come here with
more experience. They are
more independent and in less need
of a mother figure."
