ROOM STYLES AVAILABLE ON CAMPUS

DOUBLE:

A double room is normally a room for two students. The door opens to the main corridor which allows for immediate immersion in floor and hall activities. New students often enjoy living in the corridor style buildings because there are many new students to meet. Modern bathroom facilities are located on each floor, and most double buildings are coed, and have separate gendered floors. Double Room Rates for the 2005-2006 academic year CLICK HERE . There are no designed singles in double style buildings. Hulbert, Golding, Tobey, Littell, and Wilber are the double style buildings on campus (See photos below).

QUAD:

The quad style rooms are double rooms joined by a common study area that exits to the main corridor. Quad living combines privacy with ample opportunity for interpersonal interaction with others living in the building. Bathroom facilities are located on every floor. Most quad rooms are coed with separate gendered quads living on the same floor. Quad Room Rates for the 2005-2006 academic year CLICK HERE . Ford, Hays, Grant, Sherman and Huntington are the quad style buildings on campus (See photos below).

SUITE:

(Not Available to Freshmen)- Suite style rooms have three double bedrooms, a common study area, and an attached bathroom. This living unit provides the most privacy, and still provides opportunity to become involved in the campus community. Many upper-class students choose suites after they have met and formed friendships during their first two years of college. Suite Room Rates for the 2005-2006 academic year CLICK HERE . There are no designed singles in suite style buildings. Blodgett, Curtis, MacDuff and Matteson are the suite style buildings on campus.
