When the college year opens next September Hallgarten Hall, which has been unused this present semester, will be opened after a complete interior remodeling which is now being started. Accommodations for approximately 50 students, who will necessarily belong to the three lower classes because of their later choice of rooms, will be made possible under the plans now laid down by the superintendent of buildings.
The purpose of this extensive work is to place as many men on the campus next year as possible, and in view of the fact that the number of rooms saved for incoming freshmen has decreased for the last three years, this idea is especially desirable. The rooms will be rented for a half year only and men who wish to change into other dormitories for the second semester will be allowed to do so. It is expected, however, that the rooms in Hallgarten will be desirable enough to warrant the men keeping their rooms for the entire year, and this will be allowed unless the College decides to move this dormitory to some other location.
