Co-Op Housing Celebrates 21st
Year'
DAILY OFFICIAL BULLETIN
Units Find Unique Solution
To Household Management
By DOROTHY MYERS
The University's six co-operative student houses, now celebrating
their 21st anniversary, have found a unique solution to the problems
of administering and managing a housing unit.
Residents of the co-ops set up their own governing bodies, which
consist of accountants, purchasers and house managers as well as the
traditional house president and secretary. The officers do all the
buying and accounting necessary for each house, while other resi-
dents spend five hours a week on assigned house duties, such as fixing
meals, washing dishes and cleaning rooms. In this manner, the stu-
dents manage to cut room and board expenses to about $12 a week.
TO AID THE SIX campus units function as efficiently as possible
an Inter-Cooperative Council was set up to purchase food for the
houses from whoesale dealers, to take care of major house repairs and
to place applicants who wish to live in a co-op.
Principles by which the co-ops govern themselves are demo-
cratic control, neutrality in religion and politics and continuous
expansion of the co-op organization.
Open membership accounts for the large number of foreign stu-
dents now living in the houses. Fifteen per cent of co-op residents come
* * * \from countries outside North
America.
In addition to organizing them-
selves, the University's co-ops serve
as headquarters for a league of 550
student cooperatives in the United
States and Canada. The North
American Student Cooperative
League, with a membership of
more than 50,000 students, acts as
a coordinating and servicing body
for member units'
One of NASCL's main tasks is
to help co-ops throughout the
country exchange solutions to
problems of governing and man-
aging student-run housing ven-
tures.
NASCL also publishes "Co-ops
s' on Campus," a magazine which at-
tempts to integrate member units
and aids in the exchange of sug-
