Affiliates Eat First Meal in Briggs Tonight As 'Cliffe Inaugurates Student-Tutor Dining

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Briggs Hall tonight will become the first Radcliffe dormitory to have graduate students as regular affiliates in the dining hall. Similar to Harvard's system of students and faculty eating together in the Houses the experiment may eventually include all dormitories, according to Nancy Campbell '56, president of Radcliffe Student Council.

"Many students have expressed the need for academic stimulus in the dormitories" Miss Campbell said. The Council will pay $60 to carry the experiment through January, she added, when it will be evaluated by both the students and the two affiliates.

Through Council sponsorship two graduate students will eat in Briggs each Tuesday and Thursday evening. They are Mrs. Louis Dalby, a Radcliffe tutor in Modern European History, and Irene Eucken 1G a graduate student in Economics who is here from Germany for one year.

Miss Campbell said that "if the plan succeeds as we hope it will, it certainly should be expanded to all dormitries. But we honestly don't know how to finance an expanded program. I suppose we'll just cross that bridge when we come to it." Then she added, "Manna from heaven would be greatly appreciated."
