The times were not changing as fast as you think. Men were not allowed to come to a girl's room during all the time we were at Keene, and we both graduated in 1967. This photo was taken during a special Open House in all the dorms. We are now curious as to when that policy really changed.

As a marcher, I can attest that our motivation to complete the 54 mile walk to the Governor and legislators was the poor stepsister treatment of our faculty, library, and facilities as well as the lack of acknowledgement of the high academic status our College. What students were later proud to report was not the blisters but the positive changes produced by our student advocacy for resource support for the academic excellence of our College.

With donation dollars so hard to come by, stretching them to maximize their value to support the programs at KSC should be paramount. I continue to donate what I consider to be a sizable sum each year and cannot help to think of all the dollars that could be saved by only mailing the publication to those who cannot get it via the internet. Perhaps considering to "work smarter, not harder" would be a prudent point of view on how to spend donated funds. Keene State Today is excellent - I am more likely to read material when I have a few moments on the screen of my computer rather than trying to remember where I left the hard copy.
