Housing at WPI? Quads??

The quads in Riley are really big, especially if you are careful about how the furniture is arranged. The triples are also reasonably sized but the doubles are tiny, like closet sized. The room sizes and styles vary significantly in Riley, and there are issues with the fire alarm going off in the middle of the night. The triples in Morgan and Daniels are much smaller.
I am in a quad, which I like because there is more room to move around. But we all have very different schedules, so the only time really that all four of us are in the room together is between about 10 PM and 6 AM, and one of my roommates is a stealth roommate… she goes to parties or sleeps over with others, so she is rarely actually in the room. The quad is really spacious with a stealth roommate.
It seems like most upperclassmen move off campus, but not very far. Right across the street there are quite a few little apartment buildings that look like they cater to college students.
