COED LIVING (1975)
This Webpage offers a transcription of a very brief article published in the 1975 JMC 10th Anniversary tabloid created and distributed in April 1975.
On the ninth page of the tabloid it states, "In September, 1974 Snyder Phillips became coed by floor. We asked freshmen what that was like."
None of the comments are attributed to a specific individual. As a result, the presentation below is simply subdivides the comments in accordance with their appearance in the article and presents them in approximate order of their appearance.
Photocopies of selected pages were sent in by Stewart Lachman, a photocopy of the entire tabloid was sent by Cleo Parker, and an original specimen was submitted by Cynthia Freeland. Thanks, Folks!
The contents of this article have been transcribed for Web presentation. Aspects of the specific layout, formatting, etc., therefore diverge from the precise appearance of the material in the tabloid.

Justin Morrill College 10th Anniversary Tabloid / Paper
April 1975
9th page of the unpaginated tabloid
I came to Snyder-Phillips knowing I'd be living in a coed dorm. I have no complaints. I take it for granted. I've never known anything else.
I came from an all men's high school. For the first few weeks, it was hard for me to go up to the third floor. But once I got used to it, so what?
It's kind of hard for me to go out with guys who live in my dorm. Not everyone feels this way, but I feel it's like going out with someone in the family. I don't want to go out with someone I see everyday, at the mailboxes, in the cafeteria, on the stairs. I went out fall term with a guy from Phillips, and it felt strange.
