HMC members will meet with Cooke today to give her a tour of their office, showing how they use their current allotted space.

Helen C. Gilbert ’02, co-president of HMC, sounded optimistic.

“I think that we’re lucky because there are so many student organizations that don’t have offices,” she said. “But I hope that if we do have to move to a smaller office, we won’t have to cut operations.”

If HMC and HMCE move to Holworthy, they plan to use a partition to separate their two offices in a single room.

Adam J. Hornstein ’03, director of HMC San Francisco, expressed his concern about an HMC relocation.

“Besides praying we don’t get moved, we’re more or less hoping to show Susan Cooke that it just isn’t feasible for us to move,” he said.

Steven C. Wu ’02, managing editor of the International Review, emphasized the problems that will arise for his publication with a smaller office space.

“We have to make sure our magazine gets people editing it, and we need a lot of space for that. We may be moving to a smaller space and that will be tough,” Wu said.

Gilbert noted that in its current space, IRC uses closets and hallways for offices and different IRC organizations often fight over the space they need.

Illingworth said, however, that he recognized the difficulty in pleasing everyone.

“I am certainly willing to talk to any students who want to talk about this,” he said. “This is what I hope is a temporary solution. Everyone gets something, but they don’t exactly get what they want.”

Counter did not respond to a call for comment.
