"Constructed as part of a three-phrase building program that will eventually replace all of the college's dormitories, this three-building complex is designed to achieve LEED gold certification. The three buildings wrap around an existing student center and swimming pool. Dutch doors open from students� rooms onto the balconies from which they are entered. Students can close their doors entirely or leave the top halves open. The balconies, which are intended to serve both social and circulation functions, have bench seating opposite each pair of doors. Students� rooms have windows on both sides, allowing cross-ventilation, but sensors turn off the air-conditioning if the windows are open. " — Chronicle of Higher Education
