What Former Residents Say:

"Living with mostly sophomores led to a greater sense of community. I also like that McBain has single-use bathrooms."


"It was pretty big and entirely sophomores so it was really easy to make friends!"


"I liked the amount of space that I had. Despite the room being a double, I felt that I had enough space to do things in my room without being in my roommates space."
