EXTRACTED TEXT FROM PAGE:
A Co-op Kitchen Fireside Comfort Women's Cooperative Type Houses normally accommodate approximately 150 women in units of from fifteen to forty residents. The average price for this type of housing is $28 a month for both room and board. Each girl assumes her share of the work necessary to maintain the household, the time for which averages about one hour per day. Membership is open to undergraduate women students on the basis of need, scholastic attainment, and superior qualities of character and personality. Applications for membership in some houses of this type may be secured in the office of the Dean of Women prior to July first. In the case of the other units, applications are presented directly to the individual house committees. The demand for housing of this kind ordinarily exceeds the supply available; it is, therefore, advisable to secure such accommodations as early as possible. Privately Owned Residence Halls for Women are operated by their own boards of directors who employ experienced, cultured chaperons to supervise the halls and maintain University standards in these units. There are two halls of this kind which are open to undergraduate women; one accommodates 67 persons, the other 45. Prices for room and board range from $330 to $404 for the academic year. Applications for residence should be filed at the offices of the respective units. Privately Operated Student Homes are maintained by the Urbana-Champaign townspeople and are approved under regulations and standards established by the University and enforced by the Dean of Women and the Division of Student Housing. They offer room and board, room only, and room accommodations with light housekeeping facilities. Over 1000 undergraduate women live in residences of this kind which range in student capacity from five to over forty. Some of the larger privately owned student homes provide social programs and all women students are eligible to participate in the activity programs fostered by the University.
