A Portion of the Lounge at Lincoln Avenue Residence Halls

WHAT EMERGENCY H O U S I N G IS AVAILABLE? I . If you're a single man student . . .

The University of Illinois is now operating an emergency housing program that takes care of about 1260 single men. These 1260 men live in the Parade Ground Dormitories. If you live here, you will live in a one-story frame building with 15 other men. This building is divided into eight two-man sleeping rooms, and four four-man study rooms, arranged as suites. Each suite has two sleeping rooms and one study room. In each building are adequate toilet, washroom, and shower facilities. The University provides a single bed with mattress and

pillow, a study desk, a study lamp, a locker, and some closet space for you, but you must furnish bed linen and blankets. Maids clean the rooms every day. Students living in the Parade Ground Dormitories must make their own arrangements for meals. The Housing Division, however, operates a canteen in the immediate area for the convenience of the residents where light lunches, soft drinks, sandwiches, and so forth, can be purchased at reasonable prices.
