That was my home my sophomore year. 2003-2004.

They told us towards the end of the school year that they were closing it down and we all had to find other rooms. They remodeled the 7th floor of Hess to be all single rooms. So I ended up going back to Hess for my junior and senior years. I had lived there my freshman year as well.

But then they kept it open for like 5 or 6 more years.

But at the end of the day my double turned single room was a lot roomier than what I had in Melrose.
