CONNECTICUT COLLEGE.
No Exclusive Senior Dormitory for Next Year-Next Four Weeks Will End College Year.

for the ensuing year. 191S- 1913. The matter of 6, senior dormitory had been discussed at previous meet ings and a motion passed that the idea would be acceptable to a majority of the association. Owing to the divided sentiment regarding the house, the senior class voted to drop the matter if three-fourths of the class voted against the proposition. The result of the vote proved that the required num- Der were against the matter and by a vote of B in favor, 25 opposed, the subject of a senior house was dropped.
 The senior house was suggested ow- ing to the fact that the class of 1919 would be the first class to graduate from the college and having no tradi- tions or preeedents to follow, it would have many plans and arrangements to make regarding graduation and senior, customs At the present time the stu dents are scattered about campus in every dormitory and a large number of the senior class are town or day stu dents.
 Much discussion pro and con took place at the meeting held several weeks ago and considerable feeling against the plan developed.
 The college and especially the stu dent body is yet very small and the wisdom of allowing 40 or 50 students of one class. to have house was con sidered very questionable.
 Booming System Adopted.
 The. matter of the senior dormitory being dropped, discussion as to the rooming system for the coming year was held. Three plans were submit ted by the faculty for consideration. These were:
 That students be allowed to re- tain their rooms, if they so desire, and that they sign up for respective rooms by a certain specified time. That after this time list of remaining rooms be posted and that sealed ap- plications be received for the rooms. which will be assigned in the order of application.
 2-That no student be allowed to re- tain the room she at present has and that all rooms be assigned by lot. 3-That students be assigned rooms with seniors having first choice, fol- | lowed by respective classes.
 It was voted to combine plans 1 and s, to read: That students be allowed l to retain rooms which they at present 1 have; that a list of remaining rooms be posted, and that seniors be given | first choice of remaining rooms, fol- lowed by the junior, sophomore and freshman classes.
 It was also voted that students who enter Connecticut college from other colleges not be given the advantage or room assignments before other stu dents matriculated at Connecticut col lege. | Needless to say, the decision of the rooming system for next year is a de cision which has been watched witt l much interest for all concerned.
