I stayed in Max Palevsky which opened just a few years ago. The rooms aren't as spacious as I would have liked but the lounges and kitchens were superb.

Lots of range--something for everybody. You can have brand new and hotel-like (Max P) or ancient and full of character (S-H) or anything in between. Everyone I talked to liked their dorm.

Don't know about interior, but Snell-Hitchcock looked amazingly beautiful and Max P. was the Ugliest thing in a 34234 mile radius. I feel sorry for whoever the hell Max Pevlesky(sp?) was!

The dorm I stayed in was really nice. The dorm had two rooms with a common area connecting the dorm rooms. The rooms had private bathrooms for the rooms. Each floor had study rooms open 24 hours a day

The ones I stayed in [[the Max]] were built in 2001 and are the best dorm on campus. They've got personal bathrooms, roomy,nice lounges for various activities, a great computer lab, 24 hrs desk service and security, and they were in a great location.

I'm not going to say, since we didn't go in one. They didn't look remarkable from the outside, but who knows.
