Traditional Rooms Freshman typically live in a traditional-style residence hall. These halls offer a true college experience. Their lobbies are filled with students talking, studying or watching TV. Students often leave the doors to their rooms open so they can talk to other residents as they come in from class. This frequent interaction allows residents to form close relationships within a hall. These halls also offer a support network of staff members trained to assist students as they adjust to campus life.
