Grads Ask Shifts In Parietal Rules

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Over 175 graduate students had last night signed a petition to extend the time limits on the graduate parietal rules. Two important changes were called for in the rules which have been in effect for only eight weeks.

Petitioners asked that women be allowed to stay in students' room until 1 a.m. on weekends instead of until 12:30 a.m. They also advocated the same weekday times that undergraduates enjoy, from 1 to 7 p.m. Weekday parietal rules in the Graduate School are now from 5 to 7 p.m.

Few violations have been reported of the present rules, which were revised in October by the Graduate School and Law School Dormitory Councils together with Dean Rogers of the Graduate Schools and vice-Dean Hall of the Law School.

But many students have complained about the tight restrictions on time limits. Graduate students feel they should have as many hours to entertain women as undergraduates do.
