Towers A and B are similar (I lived in B, myself), having a multitude of circular floors, all with double rooms and some with lounges, while Tower C offers single rooms and is the shortest of the three buildings. All three provide students with a comfortable living environment, perfectly fit for making new friends.

The circular hallways may make some dizzy at first, but you’ll quickly get used to it. The rooms, while not lavishly large, are more than enough for a typical college freshman. All come with an adjustable-height bed, a large dresser, a hanger rack and lots of shelf space. When everyone keeps their doors open, it becomes extremely easy to meet new people in Towers. The lucky residents on some of the floors will have a lounge, which provides an extra space for freshman bonding to occur.

The other major appeal of Towers is the lobby. Always bustling with students, Towers lobby is a great resource, making it easy to find out what’s going on at the University, get involved with clubs, meet new people and sometimes bum a slice of pizza on late weekend nights. Below the busy lobby is the quintessential freshman dining experience — Market Central — and Quick Zone.
