Additional comments	Since I was not directly out of high school, and was seeking a professional goal, the attitude of the Univ. toward it's women students was not as devastating as it otherwise might have been. I did attend the football games, but none of the other men's sport games. And of course there was no athletic experience available for the women. I don't play tennis, so I don't recall if we were allowed to use the tennis courts. One young lady (or maybe more) was reprimanded by the Dean of Women for wearing jeans on grounds. Women weren't allowed in the Raven Society. Lychnos (to which I was invited) was a poor substitute.
