College Life in 1989
Enrollment was 1,076 in the Fall term and 1,045 in the Winter-Spring term with a faculty and staff of over 135 on a campus of 630 acres. There were 34 buildings on campus.
Tuition was $5,150, room was $970, board was $1,400, and fees were $180 per year. Linen service cost $20 and insurance was $100. There were laboratory fees for certain courses.
While this class was on campus, Dr. John Horner retired as president and Dr. Russell Nichols was inaugurated. Alpha Omicron Pi was disbanded and a Chi Omega chapter was organized and moved into the former AOPi house.
The front door of each living unit was secured on Sunday through Thursday at midnight and on Friday and Saturday at 1:30 a.m. All side doors were secured no later than 7:00 p.m. and unlocked no earlier than 7:00 a.m. Each student had possession of a key to the side and main doors of his or her living unit at all times. Room keys were issued for the protection of personal property.
To protect the privacy of others in all-college residences, guests of the opposite sex had to enter and exit through the main entrance of the building. Guests were welcome in the public lounges of living units any day from 10:00 a.m. until the unit closed.
Thirty-two visitation hours were available during the week when resident students could entertain members of the opposite sex in their individual rooms. Eight hours could be utilized during two weekday nights. Time periods available for visitation were: on Friday from 7:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m., on Saturday from 1:00 to 5:00 p.m., and 7:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m., on Sunday from 1:00 to 5:00 p.m. and 7:00 to 11:00 p.m., and on weekdays from 7:00 to 11:00 p.m. Each living unit selected two of those four nights for visitation privileges.
Smoking was allowed in the library only in the after hours study room, the restrooms, and the smoking lounges on the first and second floors. Typing rooms were available during library hours on a first-come, first-served basis.
Students were not to have pets, firearms, intoxicating beverages, drugs, or perishable food in the room. Sunlamps, portable heaters, and refrigerators were not allowed in the residence halls. The volume of stereos had to be kept at a minimum out of consideration for others. No tape, tacks, screws, or nails were to be put on or in the walls. Lofts and waterbeds could not be used in the rooms.
Each room had a telephone. Cable television sets were provided in public areas, but students could use only solid-state sets in their rooms.
All students could have cars on campus, but freshmen had to park either in L.S. Ayres lot or the Wiley Hall lot. Cars were not to be driven or parked on lawns or walks.
Hanover Traditions: There was no smoking on campus. There was no athletic activity on Sunday nor on the lawns of the campus.

I enjoyed all of my years at Hanover! I liked working for and learning from Dr. Gertrude Geraets! I loved meeting and marrying my husband while studying at Hanover. I benefited from the low student/teacher ratio of the classes at Hanover. It was wonderful to know my professors and the other students personally!
