Hey there, I’m a humanities major and I have had a few classes in Gilman. Not all of the humanities classes are there, but most are. A lot of classes will also have their “section” (a smaller group of about 20 students that meets with a TA once a week for a large lecture class) in Gilman.

I absolutely love the building. I did not see it before its renovation, but right now it’s awesome. There’s a small cafe and a bunch of different study areas, so it’s not just classrooms, people go there all the time to hang out or get some work done.

Most of the rooms in Gilman aren’t that big, so they can’t accommodate large numbers of students. Of the classes I’ve had in there, one had 8 students and the others had about 15-20. I think the video gives an accurate description!
