Despite her current concerns about the quality of community at Lake House, Hawes expressed interest in improving the standards of living at the co-op. I would like to see the people there feel more connected to each other and the College. Many students believe that even if Lake House fails as a co-op, it remains a positive living environment. I don't know whether I'd call Lake House an effective co-op, but I definitely feel like it's a good community. No one really has a problem with anyone else.
People respect each other.
I really enjoy the feeling here. I like the space I have. Sutcliffe expressed a strong desire for the College to retain Lake House as a co-op for students. I'm afraid the Administration will do away with the only independent living situation for upperclasswomen on campus. We can't afford to move off campus, but we're sick of the dorm situation.
