“My Catholic mother, who attended an East Coast Catholic college in the 1950s, was shocked and appalled that my Catholic Jesuit college did not have curfews. I was shocked and appalled that this was once a thing. And then pointed out to her that our on-campus housing was converted apartments with men and women gasp living RIGHT NEXT TO EACH OTHER. ON THE SAME FLOOR. I thought she’d break her hand at the time from all the rosary clutching. LOL!”
Went on a dorm tour at a big state school just a few years ago and one mom asked the tour guide what time girls had to be out of boys rooms. Tour guide was like “ what do mean?” And the mom said “ Well when is curfew”. And when your guide laughed and said that there of course wasn’t one, her kid was like “I TOLD you so” And the moms reaction was one of shock. But the real horrified look came when we saw a female student wrapped only in a towel came down the hall and walked over to a similarly garbed male student who both proceeded to enter the same room.
