HALL PRESIDENT'S COUNCIL "This document is a self-study of the University." said Kirk. "It shows the long term goals, hopes. plans and dreams of the University." Student questions primarily focused on Recommendations 25 and 26, which call for in­ creased 24-hour space both on campus and in residence halls. "As we make renovations in residence halls, we hope to make a special effort at improving 24- hour space," said Kirk. "Increased social space will hopefully help improve male-female rela­ tions."
