However, the timing of the move had proven to be an unfavorable solution to students now in the midst of classes and other time consuming activities which would make a mid-semester move nearly impossible. Allison supplied Bowdish with questionnaires asking for the stu that they would not have to move until next fall. On Thursday, Jan. 23, it was brought to the attention of Resident Director Melissa Bowdish that there was a possibility that the students in the Stevenson Wing would need to be vacated from the building by February so the University could prepare an early start on the campus offices. There seemed to be a number of single female rooms available throughout the campus (roughly 30); just enough to fill up with the 25 occupants of the Stevenson Wing. 2-3 What's Inside News Opinion/Editorial Features Classifieds Outdoors First day of class jitters were no problem compared to the enormous amount of ice on campus sidewalks.

The two wings on Russell Hall's first floor, the Sullivan Wing, (conveniently facing Sullivan Hall) and the Stevenson Wing, (facing Stevenson Library), have been mapped out to no longer be dormitory spaces for students but to become the site of needed campus office space. The plan. Student Life Director Dwayne Allison said, is intended to bring a "one stop shopping" for students. The University wishes to create offices "more stately in essence" by combining the offices of financial aid, revenue, academic records, as well as other offices now located in either Sullivan or Akeley into one easily accessible building. "Russell Hall is in the center of everything, therefore being more convenient for students to find," Allison said, explaining the University's intentions. Russell Hall residents fought back and won in a community effort to save their "home" after University officials created the possibility of turning the first door into office facilities. This would have pushed students out of their rooms only a month into the semester.
