Less is More

 


Cochise Hall, the dorm I lived in at the University of Arizona during the Sixties, was built in 1921, had large rooms, sleeping porches, no air conditioning, no carpeting, no phones in the rooms, communal bathrooms, and radiators for heat. Televisions were prohibited in the rooms, but there was one in the lobby. 

The cost was $130 per semester.

Very similar to my room at University of Akron. Except no sleeping porch.
