Many times I have called or dropped by at 3:00 a.m. to see Father Hesburgh about something.
Our halls are unique. The students make them great. Almost nowhere else are the residents of a dorm so proud of the dorm they live in as here. Friendships begin here in the dorms that last forever. When I was at Purdue for the game, I remember being in a room where people did not even know who lived next door to them.It is like living in an apartment building. Everyone keeps their door locked. It is a real cold atmosphere. It is my experience that this is not at all true here. Sections are closely united, as are floors, making the darm at times one big fam ily.
