Committee Will Not Allow Changes In Breakfast System at Claverly Hall

Claverly will not get special breakfast privileges, at least not this term, Dean Watson announced yesterday.

Watson said that the Committee on Houses, made up of the University Deans and the seven Housemasters, had rejected a Student Council recommendation to eliminate breakfast from Claverly men's board bills.

The Committee on Houses also rejected an alternate proposal of one Housemaster to give Claverly special inter-House privileges at Adams and Lowell for breakfast.

According to Watson, the Student Council plan had been dropped because the Housemasters felt it would give Claverly "overly special treatment."

They said relief from breakfast charges would be "too great an inducement" to live in Claverly, although the Student Council report specifically asked that students be encouraged to go there.

"Most Claverly men do not eat breakfast regularly, anyway," Watson said.

"If everybody ate every meal, the board rate would go up to around $16," he said. "The cost of any changes would be too great for any gain that might result."
