    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Parlors are ways of structuring the space inside a building to channel visitors in a certain way, rather than opening directly into living space. The Senior Hall parlor, inside of what is today Cleveland, was a formalized space with its own set of rules. Students could use the parlor to entertain guests and hosts teas. Seniors were usually extended more visitation privileges than younger students. No students, however, were allowed to “dance in the parlors.” [Quote from Listen Freshman,” Booklet, ca. 1960s.]]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Eloise Lohr, left, and Ann Hearl, right, straighten up a dormitory room. What could possibly be a small sewing kit sits on the windowsill. Students were urged to keep their rooms tidy as stated in a freshmen advice booklet: “Keep your room neat! You’re in college now, and you’ll be doing many things yourself which were done for you by others at home. Rooms are inspected frequently.” There were institutional rules about cleanliness, but there were also unwritten social rules to keep up with since your private space--the dorm room--was shared and likely seen by your peers at some point.

    <dcterms:subject><![CDATA[James Madison University, residence hall, students, technology]]></dcterms:subject>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[The transition to dormitories with individual cooking areas placed great trust in residential students. At first, students would be served meals in a dining hall. Later, dormitories each had kitchenettes on their floors for communal use. Things like personal ovens and microwaves in dormitory rooms all developed later in the twentieth century. In fact, students had bans on any and all “electrical appliances,” in early dormitory rooms. The change in rules and addition of these items were major developments that meant space had to be found for these new dormitory fixtures. Today, many dorm rooms in colleges and universities around the nation have personal cooking appliances, especially for upperclassmen. [Quote from Freshman Training Examination, 1923.
