Even to college students a card directory would be a great convenience. We frequently wish to look a fellow up, whom we know rather well, have met on many occasions, but we haven't an idea where his room is. Or there is a friend whom we have often seen entering and issuing from a certain entry; he has often asked us up to his room...
