...recent discussions at Mather House, the clash between seniors and younger, randomized students posed a similar problem for the Mather HoCo. The controversy arose between seniors who predominantly chose the courtyard as the ideal (and traditional) location for the spring formal and randomized sophomores and juniors hoping for a new location...
