Abby, the college authorities have a responsibility to provide living quarters that are free of drugs, alcohol and a prothet atmosphere. generation of college administrators has probably found enforcing dormitory a headache, but the cur rent generation is the first to "turn thA mn nwr in animais. vait yuung people a it a. i. are being exposed to sexual stimulation at ah age when their hormones need no nudg ing.

Why should we make it easy for them? Look into this matter. You will be shocked by what is go- iing on in 95 percent of our col leges. Men and women live on iLthe same floor, share the same bathrooms and showers; they are openly sleeping together, and nobody blinks an eye! ANOTHER UPSET PARENT reading the mail last week, I fed more like Rip Van Winkle than Abigail Van Buren. I confess I was not aware that the situation is exactly as you described it in all but a very few colleges in our lovely liberal land. Read on: DEAR ABBY: I live in a university town and I frequently visit other universities as a speaker.

I am usually in the women's dorm. is no security. I have gone to the ladies' bathroom at midnight and found men -and women showering there together!

I didn't drink, smoKe or engage in sex wun 'the men I dated. Living in a college dormitory was a new experience for me. There were 'ho restrictions whatsoever. My roommate's boyfriend would spend the night in her i bed, which was only Inches from mine, so bad to find somewhere to sleep or Just stay in the same room with them! I requested a change of roommates, but my new roommate was no better than the first. When I complained to the authorities again, I was told: "If you keep this up, you are going to get a reputation for being difficult!" Years ago, college students were not allowed to have their own apartments on campus because the college authorities wanted to keep their moral standards high.

Today, the students who want to keep high moral standards must move out of the college dorms get their own apartments. DISGUSTED IN DEAR ABBY: We sent eight children to college over the last 24 years, and I have -witnessed an unbelievable change in the so-called house rules, underage annKing, par rying, sex, pot and drugs have become so common and "ac- -ceptawe" tney are seldom cause for disciplinary action. Abby, please make some sur- Lprise inspections of some col lege aorms. you win oe surprised. -1 FATHER OF EIGHT DEAR ABBY: 1 agree with "Upset Parent'' concerning the free and open sexuality in college dorms.

believe college authorities should take some steps to control immorality In the dorms. First, they should eliminate coed dorms. I strongly object to your statement that "If young adults are Inclined to fool around, they will find a way to do it on their lunch hour." If young men were kept out of young ladies' quarters and vice versa, it would certainly help to correct this situation. How did we ever get into this mess, and where will it end? HARRISBURG PARENTS DEAR PARENT: We got into this mess when the rules were so consistency Ignored they might as well not even have existed. And it will end when enougi students and parents get that message to the college authorities Jim Cross, Cumberland Serving will be from 4 to 7 p.m.
