<p>can someone explain the layout of each FLOOR of hinton james? Every site i went to just explains the suites. I know the Suites are single-sexed, but are the floors single sexed? and how many suites to a floor? </p>
<p>I’m so confused.</p>
<p>Hinton James is like a 10-story plus sign. At the intersection, there is a bank of elevators – which you will always have just missed, or will wait on forever. It was that way back in 76, and is that way now. </p>
<p>There are outside concrete corridors. You will walk past a single outside door, that goes into the suite hallway. There will be 4 rooms off this hallway, 2 on the right, 2 on the left. Continuing straight down the hallway will be one final swinging door that goes into the narrow bathroom. </p>
<p>You can get together with your suitemates and get approved paints to paint your suite hallway with. Be artistic, be geometric, whatever… It’s a good exercise in teamwork and getting to meet the rest of your suite.</p>
<p>Some floors are men-only/women-only. Some were co-ed/suite by suite. Depending on overcrowding, sometimes residence admin would declare north&east hallways men and south-west hallways women. That was only done on 1 floor though. </p>
<p>There are bike racks out front. There is a S-bus route(south campus). You will run up the hill to catch it often, knowing that it will pull off 15 seconds before you get there. You will have to wait, or walk to classes on north campus. Your legs will talk your wallet into getting a bike (mine did). It is fantastic, good for you, and there are plenty of bike racks for your access. They are in front of Hinton James. </p>
<p>You will have a great time. Be sure to study well.</p>
