Most of the discussions centered
' round probleths of the dormitories.

Transportation was another prob—
Lem. The buses are not 'fulfill the

have this situation on almost all
of their routes.
A set of double standards
exists concerning dormitory
Many rules exist because that's
the way it is done at University
Park, such as the cafeteria menu.
However, University Park
are not inhibited by 11:00pm and
1:00 am curfews. Are Behrend
girls more promiscuous? The ad—
ministration claims- that it is
for protection against people
getting into the dorms. Since
when is Erie a haven for rapists
and maniacs, and thieves? There
is no one to watch the doors at
night. What are the security
guards paid for? To look at all
the kids in bed? It's a shame
that the Dean of Women doesn't
like to st. , out •ast 1:00 am.
