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.
