lehigh university brown and white vol 82 ho 39 0__06oe^_£m bethlehem pa friday march 26 1971 866-033 i residence hall plan in limbo according to dean campbell by donald suss the status of projection 76 a report prepared by dean of residence clarence b campbell to outline the university's residence needs over a six-year-span appears to be m limbo according to campbell p-76 was adopted m principle by a subcommittee on residence and m that way is still valid and still stands campbell noted that the basic philosophy set forth m p-76 is still the guiding philosophy on residence needs but that some precise elements are not likely to come about by 1976 as a result different steps will probably have to be taken m order to arrive at the same point place as was originally set forth m p-76 two major points of p-76 that were considered essential to help eliminate overcrowding and will not occur are the full renovation of taylor hall and the building of new undergraduate dor matories by 1972 as a result overcrowding will continue and may become more acute as larger freshmen classes and women students are admitted and the amount of housing available remains stable originally it had been hoped that the number of freshmen housed in the freshmen buildings would be reduced by 1972-73 campbell noted that this plan also is now m limbo and the present situation must continue untila new building is erected plans now call for a new building by 1976 and present planning is proceeding on this assumption he added however that any new buildings will be dramatically different from the present structures according to campbell instead of a full renovation of taylor hall the building will be rejuvenated over the summer and open for housing next fall this rejuvenation will probably take the form of patching up the building and could run into 100,000 m repairs campbell stated that the housing situation will probably remain for the next three years about what it has been m the last fifteen m terms of providing housing for all students who desire it as a result of the opening of the new rh-lodormatory complex next fall there will be no " sophomore squeeze next year for the first time since campbell came to the university m 19f»7 however he added i suspect that beginning m 1972 we will very definitely have a high sophomore squeeze sopho more squeeze comes as a result of the fact that sophomores receive the lowest priority of all people m the residence system and not all sophomores who desire housing receive it two unexpected events have added to the problems of sophomore squeeze and pro viding housing for all undergraduates who desire it first campbell noted that co education was an unexpected added element originally rh-10 was planned to be an all male residence complex which would have eliminated the problems of overcrowding however with the intro duction of women the number of spaces available for upperclassmen will now diminish by approximately the number of women admitted a second problem is the present higher rate of attrition at the university this relates to residence difficulties m that m order to offset the financial loss sustained it has become necessary to admit larger freshmen classes since all fresh men are guaranteed housing this reduces the number of spaces available to upper classmen campbell noted that if planning had gone into effect when p-76 was originally drawn up the university could have had new housing constructed by 1972 he added that dormatories can be built m two years but the problem is that a design must be used that tias already been executed a site must exist to put up this design and the money must be available to pay for the design at moravian he added dorms were constructed m one year alternative possibilities are available for the university to construct housing facilities m a short period of time campbell said that presently we are investigating among other things the feasibility of modular housing he noted that a factory is presently being built m new jersey that will be capable of stacking apartments on a site within six months these facilities which have been used m the past are constructed of poured concrete and meet hew housing standards taylor dorm was originally scheduled to be renovated next year m p 76 however a freshman class of 1050 makes taylor indespensible to
