Further information concerning the organization of the two Houses was given out yesterday at University Hall as the result of the flood of questions received by the administration on various points not previously covered. The most typical queries have been tabulated and with the respective answers were made public by the administrators of the Houses as follows.
1 What chance is there that a group of Juniors who have been living together in the same entry or dormitory for the last two years might all be taken into the same House as a "group"?
Realizing that the Juniors have to a large extent formed their associations and contacts, the Masters or the Senior Tutors will be pleased to consult with the members of such groups or their representatives in order to see if their desires cannot be met in some manner which will be satisfactory to all parties concerned. Applications for admission in such cases should be filed together.
2 What should be done in case a member of the Class of 1931 wishes to room with a member of the Class of 1932 or 1933, but is not certain at this time whether his friend will be admitted because the applications for the other classes are not due until later?
The member of the Class of 1931 should obtain a blank for his friend and file it together with his own application, noting that the two are filed together.
3 Would a member of the Class of 1931 who applies for one of the Houses and is not admitted be too late in applying for a room in the Yard?
Applications for rooms in the Yard will not be sent out until about the first of January, which is several weeks after the time when the Masters will announce their selections from the Class of 1931.
4 Would it be possible for a representative of the Houses or some one familiar with the details of Lowell and Dunster Houses to talk to groups of interested students in order to answer questions and clear up certain points?
Yes, if men will speak to Dean Hanford or to one of the Masters or Senior Tutors.
