We have separate Girls’ Dorm. Girls living on the A&M cam pus for the first time say they have quickly been accepted into the “Aggie brotherhood.” An all-male college until 1963, A&M admitted female students on a limited full-time basis until 1969 when the doors were com pletely opened. But housing for the girls was off-campus in apart ments and homes until the com pletion last month of an $8 mil lion dormitory complex. The new dorms brought 712 girls on-campus, including one hall with girls on the first two floors and boys on the top two. Officials believe the new com plex played a major part in a 53 per cent women enrollment in- cx-ease for TAMU, bringing coed enrollment to a record 2,712. To tal enx-ollment now numbers 16,- 156. A sampling at the coed dorms brought out these opinions: —Girls came to Aggieland be cause of its academic reputation in a number of professional career ax-eas. —Students feel the campus is fx-iendly, large enough to offer diverse programs, yet not bux-ying students in large classes. —Friendship is important hex-e. Several girls said they had de veloped closer ties with fellow students than they did at their hometown high schools. —Girls say the male students txeat them as if they are special, “as a person.” —The coed housing is consid ered the best anywhere by gills who have lived on other cam puses. Brenda Buegeler, freshman ed ucation major from Alice, said she decided to become an Aggie after visiting the campus several times on 4-H txdps. “Evex-yone was so fx-iendly,” Miss Buegeler recalled. “Everyone says ‘hello’ or “how dy’ and it makes you feel at home.” Her observations were echoed over and over by other coeds. Kax-en Haws of Austin, daugh ter of an Austin veterinarian who graduated from TAMU in 1948, i - ecalled “I wanted to come to A&M since I was a child.” But the junior accounting ma jor also wanted to live in a dor- mitox-y dux-ing her freshman year, so she spent a year at UT-Austin for the experience of living with gix-ls from all levels of life. She transferred to TAMU a year ago. Miss Haws said she feels a part of the univex-sity this year by living on-campus. “I love Texas A&M,” Miss Haws explained, “because every one cares about each other. If you need help, thex-e’s always someone to turn to.” “It’s all part of something like a bi - otherhood,” is how Nancy Ondrovik of Dallas summed up the Aggie coed spirit. “Aggies want to do something for their school, and they care what hap pens,” the junior psychology ma jor said. Betsy Price and her husband, Wayne, both Southwestern Uni versity graduates, live in Dunn Hall, she as head resident ad visor. “I’ve found most of our girls entexed A&M because of the aca demic reputation,” Mrs. Price in formed. “Many of the freshmen were attracted by the College of Science.” Mr. and Mrs. Price, who share a small apaxtment in the dorm wittf male and female residents, said the mixed dorm has no prob lems because the boys respect the girls’ pxivacy. “Most girls come here because of the type of school Texas A&M is, and the friendly atixiosphex-e,” Mrs. Price noted. “They know thei'e are a lot of boys, but I find the girls are more interest ed in a good education than the ratio of boys to girls.” There also are some answers one would expect. Fox- example, one girl who did not want to be identified said going to A&M was a family tra dition. “My grandfather and father BATTALION CLASSIFIED WANT AD RATES lOi.e day 5c per word [ >cc 'Kwcd each - $35 per mo.

Main 822-6000 are both Aggies,” she related. “Dad couldn’t get my two broth ers to come, so he sent me. Yes, 1 wanted to come, too.” Mrs. Price said girls under 21 years of age must be in the hall by midnight on weekdays and by 2 a.m. on weekends, except for those with parental permission to have no hours. Approximately half of the under 21 girls have that permission, she said. The girls reported dorm facili ties—including mail delivery, sau na baths, laundry facilities and special study rooms—are the best they have seen. And the coeds express belief in the Aggie traditions. They predict the TAMU female graduate will be just as loyal a former student as any graduate—in the past or in the future. Budget Recipes With Hamburger RECIPES FEATURE How do Hungarian meatballs sound? What about enchiladas? Or meatloaf? With ground beef as a basic ingredient, all three of these dishes give the student on a hamburger meat budget a break from just plain hamburgers every night. Enchiladas are easy and quick to make. Ingredients needed are: one pack corn tortillas, cheese, beanless chili, and onions. Tor tillas, covered with chili, are laid in a long dish. Cheese and onions are spooned in, the tortillas and closed, and the dish is placed in an oven, preheated at 350 degrees, for 15-20 minutes. Meatloaf takes a little longer, but is worth waiting for. One pound of ground beef will feed at least six people. The ground beef is mixed with two eggs, bread pieces, one cup milk, and seasoning. The meat is then shap ed into a loaf, placed in a greased loaf pan and baked at 475 degrees for about 50 minutes. A final variation with hambur ger meat is Hungarian meatballs. Ingredients needed are: ground beef, bread crumbs, milk, onions, Brighten Your Apartment or Dorm from HARDY GARDENS Hardy Gardens has the largest selection in this area of living plants for inside or patio areas. • TERRARIUMS • POT PLANTS • HANGING BASKETS • DISH GARDENS • CACTUS GARDENS We have everything for their care.
