Just want to make it clear:

A quad is NOT the same as a suite.

A suite (at Case anyway) implies private (single or double) lockable rooms that lead to a private common room that only your and your suitemates can access.

A quad implies private (single or double) lockable rooms that lead to a small hallway, accessible to anyone in the dorm, around which the rooms and a bathroom are clustered (think of it as a cul-de-sac). This hallway has a non-lockable door (for semi-privacy, like run-to-the-shower-in-a-towel kind of privacy) that opens out into a common room. The common room is mainly used by people on the floor, but can be accessed by anyone in the building.
