We have to look at the big picture - how Pemberton is historic necessary is such a The first all-female dorm move, and is it worth in Illinois should remain a breaking tradition and historical site and male students should stay out. history by making Pemberton Hall co-ed? It's a national landmark, but that status will be deemed worthless if it no longer represents what it once was recognized for. The idea of converting Pemberton Hall to a co-ed honors dorm is still being debated. If Eastern 0 is smart, it will keep the 89-year-old all-female dorm alone and preserve what little history Eastern has. If it is converted to an honors dorm, some significant changes will also take place. For example, office space will be assigned to honors faculty, classrooms and meeting spaces. What was once a historical all-female donn would now serve as a part-time segregated co-ed dorm and part-time leami.ng facility. The people directly affected by the possible move, the residents, have not been consulted. 'Tm totally against it (Honors students) don't want to move here and we don't want to move out (of McKinney),'' said Ana Kuhlmann, a junior speech communication major and Pemberton Hall resident. ''I don't remember them giving us a chance to vote on it." If the plan does go through, no Pemberton residents will be forced to move out.
