Abuses reign after
East Quad lottery

Conference draws thousands Wilkinson hits

and Inteflex students with one
semester of residency,
-8th priority are those non-
RC and Inteflex students with
two semesters of residency, and
-9th priority are those non-
RC and Inteflex students with
one semester of residency.
EACH resident has been as-
signed a priority number with
priorities six and seven plus in-
coming freshpersons guaranteed

a room. Students in RC and In-
teflex are required to live in
the dorm for at least two years.
This would leave only 132
sp-aces (91 male and 41 female)
for those wanting rooms from
priorities one through five and
eight and nine. With 290 upper-
class students vying for those
available spaces, nearly 160
people will be looking for new,
off-campus housing after the
selection process of yesterday
and today concludes.
Meanwhile, it was rumored
last night that a group of East
Quad residents would stage a
sit-in to disrupt the room selec-
tion process. But according to
one East Quad official, it was
called off after campus security
was alerted to the situation.

(Continued from Page 1)
Although the conference was
well attended, the audience was
predominantly women, with men
numbering under 100.
LECTURES r a n g i n g from
"Victorian Pornography" to
"The Assaulted Wife: Catch-22
Revisited" and "Fear of Suc-
cess" contributed to the eclectic
atmosphere.
The morning session consisted
of three speakers who concen-
trated on "New Perspectives on
Sex Roles," and the controversy
and interest stirred by the lec-
tures was apparent.
"When I grow up, I want to
be just like Judy Bardwick,"
commented a young woman
about one of the speakers.
BUT A MALE participant
said, "Ms.'Bardwick's geaa:t is
beautiful, yet it becomes too
easy to overlook some really fal-
lacious statements."
One group of young married
women discussed the merits and
problems of combining home

life with life at work.
"My kids would be bored stiff
if I tried to include them in my
office routine," said one mother.
"They want their privacy now."
THE REST of the women
there agreed that the plight of
a working woman was a poten-
tially anxiety-ridden one.
"You make the deciLson to
work, and you feel guilty about
abandoning your kids and yaur
natural role as full-time moth-
er," said another. "Then the
guilt with which you approach
the situation shows through to
your kids-the situation can be
very tense."
"The woman who is forced to
work from a financial need has
got it easy," said another young
working mother. "She doesn't
have all that guilt to carry
around."
The segment of the conference
entitled "Male Roles and the
Male Experience," touching on
themes such as "Friendship
Styles Among Men" and "Man

and the Abortion Exoerience,"
drew an enthusiastic response
from the participants.
ALTHOUGH there wer- two
segments dealing with black
women, the number of blacks in
the audience was surprisingly
small.
Jean Carlson, a professor in
the Education department, dem-
onstrated "Current Att:tudes To-
ward People Who Remain Sm-
gle" through the use of lri-
versity alumni and student
questionaires.
According to her study, the
answers from the class of '50
were generally stereotyped and
conservative. That class saw a
definitely negative connotation
about the single woman, fee:ing
pity for her "wasted" life.
YET THEY viewed the life of
a single man as respectablr , for
he had chosen that mode of
existence. The single woman
was supposedly waiting contn'1-'
ously for the salvation of a mer-
riage proposal.
The class of '65 responded in
a different fashion, admiring the

status of single people in gen-
eral. But the survey of the class
of '77 pointed up marked incon-
sistencies between female and
male. The men of '77 were rela-
