The Housing Guide

What residents say

“I love that it’s really really close to tech. I’m Pre-Med, so half my classes each quarter are in Tech, so I’ll leave five minutes before class and go out the basement of Sargent and be in Tech in 10 seconds. The facilities aren’t as nice as in other dorms, they haven’t been renovated in a while. It’s definitely clean, that’s not an issue, it’s just that the carpets are really old, the building looks old, things kind of break a lot.”

Bryn Dougherty, Weinberg Freshman

“I think that Sargent can be community, but you have to make on yourself. In other dorms, they kind of make the community for you and do the work for you, while in Sargent the friends you have you made them yourself. There’s no study area, we have to go to Mudd to have a quiet place to study because we have one lounge for the whole building, which kind of sucks because there’s no central meeting place.”

Odette Zero, Weinberg Freshman

“I actually like the setup of the room, it’s a little small but there’s a lot of storage which is nice and I like all of the wood cabinets - I think it looks a lot less clinical than the newer dorms like Bobb.””

Camille Michelotti, Communications Freshman

“It’s not always conducive for people going in and out of people’s rooms - people go to Bobb or Elder to pre game.”

Sydney Selix, SESP Freshman

“It’s been really fun, especially having the lounge on this floor. I can just go in there whenever and chill and there’s the Wii setup, pool, ping pong, TV. Munchies have been fun as well as the different events housing does.”
