Unique LRC Extention
Allows Quiet Study
Allows Quiet Study
BY JERRY WOLOWICZ
The new extension of the LRC, L-106, was opened to students and members of the faculty on Mar. 20. The new room offers students a different type of area to study.
Unlike study halls or the LRC, L-106 is a place where students can work together and discuss assignments in a low tone of voice. The attractive room conveys an atmosphere in which students can either read for enjoyment or study for classes in a very comfortable manner. The type of room that L-106 is takes away the aggravation of difficult study and actually makes it very relaxing. The room is a very friendly place.
Mrs. Renie Hoeppner has been selected as the supervisor of the room Her general friendliness helps to make L-106 a cheerful place to be. Under the umbrella of the LRC program, Mrs. Hoeppner operates the room with the cooporation of English, math, and social science teachers. These teachers are available to any student who needs help with school work.
Since this room is an extension of the LRC facilities, the hours and regulations coincide with those of the upper LRC. The only difference is that students are permitted to work together in L‑106.

L-106 can hold as many as 50 people during any one period. So far the number of student using the room is not as many as was expected. Mrs. Hoeppner commented, "I am glad to see students enjoy working here. The only comments I have heard so far have been very good. I only wish more students would come and take advantage of the fine facility we have here."
Although L-106 is an excellent place for individuals to study by themselves or with one other person, the room is equipped with conference rooms for larger groups to work on or discuss group projects. Many faculty members plan to bring certain students to L-106 and take advantage of the conference rooms by using the rooms for tutorial purposes. Reservations to assure the availability of the conference rooms can be made through the LRC office.
For the enjoyment of the students and faculty members L-106 offers paperbacks, books, periodicals, and newspapers. Even though the room has just opened, the selection of materials available for reading is very large. The rack of paperbacks is filled with good reading material, and there are many periodicals that one can read about almost any subject he chooses.
Thanks to the Rotary Club of Des Plaines, our parents, the Board of Education, and the administration, this attractive and useful facility is ours. All students here at Maine West should make good use of this excellent addition.
