This historical study examined the changes experienced in the National Association of College and University Residence Halls (NACURH) from the period of 1971 to 1980. The primary focus of the study was to investigate the events that happened in these years and extract themes from those occurrences. Primary and secondary publications were consulted for insight into this era of the organization's history. In addition, a questionnaire was sent to individuals who participated in NACURH during this time in order to gain perspective on the issues. Four themes to describe NACURH's growth and changes during this time emerged from this study: benefits to member schools, regional concerns, national concerns, and financial matters. Through events within these four themes, a complete picture of NACURH from 1971 to 1980 emerged
