Radcliffe Dorm Poll Opposes Stag Plan

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Because seven out of ten Radcliffe dormitories voted against the plan to have a stag line at the Christmas Formal, there will be an all-college vote on Monday to decide definitely on the proposal.

According to results of a poll taken last Tuesday and announced last night, a majority of 316 girls voted against the plan and 166 for it. The largest opposition to the plan came from Moors Hall, which had 83 against and seven for. The only dormitories in favor of extra men at the dance were Briggs, Barnard, and Eliot.

When the Social Chairmen first voted to invite stags to the Formal, they believed their thoughts were representative of Radcliffe opinion, Joan Rubinstein '56, Chairman of the Social Committee explained. However, the alarming number of protests from Radcliffe girls as well as from Harvard students prove that this is somewhat of a misconception, she added.
