Student Petition for Improvements to North Campus Dorms

This semester, a number of problems in the High and Low-Rise dormitories have highlighted alleged differences in the quality of housing conditions on North Campus.

Students in Low Rise 6 and 7 circulated a petition last week seeking renovation of their buildings to bring it “up to par” with the other freshman dorms. Among other issues, the petition cites faulty heaters, unsanitary bathrooms, lack of commodities afforded in other dorms and disorganized and damaged signage throughout the buildings as reasons the Low Rises are commonly regarded by students as “the worst dorms on campus.”
