Hopkins forms group to look at City's noise ordinance bill
"We presently have no plan for a fraternity row, although we have been urged to consider options for our Greek organizations, and we expect to spend some time thinking about this issue in the context of our ongoing discussion of meeting residential and social needs of students," Burger said.
The first few weeks of the school year saw the highest frequency of noise complaints regarding student activities, although overall there have been no significant problems throughout the past two semesters.
"I have been very pleased at the generally positive way that students have responded this year to our entreaties to be respectful of the neighbors," Burger said. "As long as groups of students live in the community, this will be an ongoing issue of both education and close monitoring."
"I still firmly believe that we can find a balance between the social lives of our students off campus and the lives of our neighbors. We will be able to adjust," Bennett said.
The other administrators attending the meeting will be Director of Community Relations Salem Reiner, Director of City Relations Joseph Smith, Dean of Student Life Susan Boswell and Associate Dean of Students Dorothy Sheppard.
The bill still must make it through hearings before legislative committees and the public. If passed, it will then be subject to approval by mayor Sheila Dixon.

I think that it's GREAT. ZERO TOLERANCE. I hope that they go through with it, both in the city AND on the campus. (Continued…)
