Freshman-only halls can be counterproductive |
|
By Steven Postolka
When I first came to Morningside as a freshman in 2007, I chose to live on a freshman hall. I made this choice because I felt it would be better for my college experience during my first year.

But my choice to live on a freshman hall was largely misguided. (Nov. 12)

What happens when you put a psychiatrist, a nun, and an insane person in the same room for many hours? It gets worse: what if it was all women in the same room? Well, you write a script and call it “Agnes of God,” according to John Pielmeier. Our very own Theater Department is putting on a production of the famous play, “Agnes of God.” (Nov. 5) |
