GOOP N&WS,CHl&F11 , Specialty housing will divide campus A~6R OFOUR If all goes as planned, specialty housing could soon become a reality on the Ithaca College campus. A661JT6 PASS6t> TH6 Bonnie Solt Prunty, coordinator of housing services and chair of a task force set up to examine the issue of specialty' housing, argues that LI& PETECTOR, the plan would allow students to grow personally and academically by living together with other members of a club or organization. Unfortunately, the plan will only serve to further divide a student body that already voluntarily segregates rtsett. In an ideal world, different types of students would want to live together in order to broaden their perspectives on THE ITHACAN'S VIEW the world. However, IC falls far short of an ideal campus. Since white students make up nearly 95 percent of the student body, the vast majority never choose to associate wrth the small number of black, Hispanic, Asian, Native American and other students of color. Specialty housing threatens to create physical boundaries that will make it even harder for students from different racial or ethnic backgrounds to interact. Furthermore, specialty housing will not only segregate the campus by race, but by ma1or, class and interests as well. The amount of social interaction between students majoring in IC's five different schools, which has traditionally been minimal, will decrease even more rt this plan is implemented. On a larger, more diverse campus, specialty housing is a great way for people wrth similar interests or professional goals to get to know each other. At Ithaca, however, students already know most of the I LETTERS people in their majors because of small class sizes. The problem at IC is not that students have too few opportunities to meet people similar to themselves, but rather that students rarely encounter people minimally different than themselves. Under the plan, Democrats could be sepa­ All whites not racist rated from Republicans, communications majors from business majors, I have just received a copy of the nity."To that I say, I at least wantto like that?
