                <text>The article describes the ongoing debate concerning replacing the University of Richmond’s coordinate system with a coeducational one. Dr. George M. Modlin, University President, and Dr. Mary Louise Gehring, Dean of the Westhampton College, spoke to some 200 alumnae about the topic. Modlin highlighted that the decision rests on the Board of Trustees and the incoming president, while Dr. Gehring expressed her opposition to coeducation, but acknowledges that “it might become increasingly workable for us in the future”. Both agreed that they would want difference in the educational institution. The University President pointed out that there are more “University-wide” departments, campus-wide faculty committees and meetings, and that Richmond and Westhampton Colleges have “more uniform” requirements for degrees and admissions. He mentioned that the University Student Union promotes more uniform rules and regulations, and that the Student Planning Association submitted a plan recommending the abolition of the coordinate system, which they said was “antiquated”. Modlin commented that the Westhampton Alumnae Association and the independent departaments at Westhampton strongly oppose centralization.</text>

                <text>In this article, representatives from the Food Services staff and the University of Richmond student body attempt to combat the trash problem at the Central Dining Facility according to Dee Hardy, associate director of University Food Services. Specifically, the group will address spills, food dumped on the carpet, knocked-over chairs and the abandonment of trays. Anne Balducci, a line server in the dining hall, says, "I don't know whether they (the students) do it just to make us clean it up or they just don't want to be bothered themselves.&amp;rdquo; On Oct. 16 there was a dinner with University Food Services and representatives from the fraternities and University Student Union to address the increasing amount of complaints from students, faculty members and families about the dining hall&amp;rsquo;s messy state. One suggestion included designating certain areas of the dining halls to specific fraternities and groups, &amp;ldquo;so that students will have more pride in their area." An accompanying photograph shows a messy table covered in cups, plates, bowls, and trays, spilling food.</text>
