Our closets and our desks were located in 3 girl rooms on the 2nd and 3rd floors. Gradually all the FSU sororities did away with sleeping porches.

When we tore down and rebuilt our house at FSU, a lot of the alumnae were sad to see the sleeping porch go. I think it must have been pretty popular there.
