Newsite—Foresite

At the risk of being labelled reactionary, however, may one enquire whether it would not be possible to remove the common common room to another location within the main building? We have to get used to the idea of a common common room slowly; the processes not being facilitated by having a make-shift, uncomfortable half-hall scattered about with incongruous, if comfortable furniture, labelled "C.C.R.," and left otherwise empty, partly through shyness, but mainly through inconvenience. Meanwhile, the men's common room, at least, would look rather nice with one or two of those comfortable-looking divans, if not an armchair.
