What residents say

“You’ve got to be okay with not meeting as many people. You get to know people really personally, but it’s not going to be the typical residence hall experience because it’s much smaller.”

Joshua Hauck, McCormick freshman

“If you want to get to know a lot more people, if you want to be a part of fraternity life or sorority life, it’s probably not the best place to be.”

Aarush Gandhi, McCormick freshman

“It’s probably one of the better looking dorms. The facilities are really nice.”

Joshua Crowder, Weinberg sophomore

“It is GREEN House, so you have to have some sort of penchant for green living. If not green living, just maybe a subtle interest in making the world a little greener.”

Olivia Torres, Communication sophomore
