College Cottages

The Cottages were built in 1948 to provide housing for faculty members.
Now these four Cottages house seniors and some juniors in one and two-bedroom, furnished apartments. Students living in Cottages have the option of cooking for themselves. Competition for housing in Cottages is high and is attained by applying with friends in early spring. Housing assignments in Cottages are awarded on a point system.
