Cooperative Living Practiced'
By Henderson House Coeds

By MARY ALICE CHENEY
Henderson House, University
women's residence, lives up to its
reputation of providing an adven-
ture in cooperative living.
'Opened for the first time in
November 1945, as a gift of Mich-
igan alumnae in memory of Mary
Barton Henderson, the residence
now provides a home for 16 wo-
men students.
Operating on a cooperative
basis, Henderson House enables
a woman student to earn part
of her living expenses, saving as
much as $80 a semester. It is
not expected that residents will
carry outside work during their
first semester in the house.
House duties include planning
menus, serving meals, washing
dishes and cleaning the house.
These duties are done in rotation
and in accordance with class
schedules so that no one has the
same duty every week. There arel
no pay checks offered.
Responsibility for care and
operation of the house rests
with the students under the di-
rection of the house director
and the Board of Governors ap-
pointed by the regents of the
University.
Present house director is Mrs.
Beatrice Bosworth. She helps in-
struct residents in home manage-
ment so that high standards may
be maintained and experience and
efficiency acquired. In an aca-
demic university such as Michigan,
where courses in home economics
are not available, such a residence
provides definite training and su-
pervision in management of the
home.
Mrs. William Walz is chair-
man of the Board of Governors,
and is assisted by Mrs. D. Eid-
son, house manager; Mrs. H.
May, social advisor and Mrs. E.
Power, in charge of personnel
and selection.
Speaking for the Board and
Michigan alumnae participating in
the operation of the house, Mrs.
Power pointed out that she be-
lieved Henderson House provided
an added experience in demo-
cratic living and good citizenship
training.
Since all applicants cannot be
accepted, the alumnae give pref-
erence to those women who are
interested in principles of co-
operative living, and to those
best qualified on the basis of
scholarship, personality, health,
and experience. The scholastic

requirement of 2.6 must be
maintained for continucd resi-
dence in the house.
Sinc residence in Hendersun
House is considered a privilee, in-
itial application must be made to
assistant dean of women, Mrs.,
Mary C. Bromage in the Office of1
the Dean of Women. Eligible ap-
plicants will be referred to the
Alumnae Council Office and the
director of the house. The selec-
tion committee of the Board of
Governors will make the final
choice of residents.
Although residence in the
house is not limited to any one
group, those women now on
campus are better eligible for
acceptance as they have already
adjusted to Michigan life.
Supervision of intra-house ac-
tivities is done by house officers.1
with Nina Pence president. Judi-
ciary duties are carried on by the
house council, composed of four
members and the house president
acting ex officio. Steps are taken
to spread responsibility over a
large part of the group.
Traditional social activities
such as the house steak roast,
senior breakfast and alumnae
tea are held annually. Scholas-
tic awards and an award to the
most valuable member in the
house are given each year.
An orientation program is now
being planned for the 1948 fall
semester to acquaint new members
with house activities.
Speaking about life in Hender-
son House, Miss Pence commented
that there was a close feeling
among the coeds in the house
which she had not found else-
where, and that in the atmosphere
of gracious living, there was as
much to get as to give.
