put into effect on a large scale,
Seven new residence halls, four
for women and three for men in
crease the campus residence hall
capacity by 2000, upping the total
number of students housed on
campus to 8,500 well over half
the total student enrollment.
About 4100 of the students
housed on campus will be men
and 4400 women.
The Pollock Halls area will
be divided, with Nittany men's
dorms joining the Pollock A
men's building and the four
women's buildings to form the
largest community on campus.
This community of 1000 women
and 1200 men will eat in the
Pollock Area dining hall.
The other two men's buildings
in the Pollock Area will be joined
with Simmons and McElwain
Halls in two communities of 500
women and 225 men each. Pol
lock B residents will eat in Sim
mons dining room and Pollock C
residents will eat in McElwain.
The other major community
will be West Halls. About 275
women will be housed in McKee
Hall and 75 in Irvin, Hamilton,
Thompson, Watts and Jordan will
house 1200 men. All West Hall
residents will eat in Waring.
Atherton Hall may become a
community with town indepen
dent men. One hundred fifty meal
tickets for Atherton dining room
will be available for purchase by
town men.
Major living areas not yet
incorporated into the commu
nity living plan are North Halls
which houses 1144 men and
South Halls which house 1000
women.
Community living at this stage
means only coeducational dining
facilities, but it is expected that
social programs and possibly even
student government will eventu
ally be set up on a community
basis.
