Paqe Eight THE MICHIGAN DAILY Thursday, March 20, 1975 Pane Eight THE MICHIGAN DAILY 'r - Abuses reign after East Quad lottery Conference draws thousands Wilkinson hits (Continued from Page 1) 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.
