These are private, not University owned dorms and as PackMom says, they have their own amenities such as a cafeteria. I sarcastically asked my friend if there was a concierge. The “idea” being spread from year to year is that NY metro students would not feel as comfortable living with all the midwesterners. They would have “nothing in common.” She heard this statement from an otherwise “normal” mother. At least she thought the woman was normal before this encounter. By the way, we are from the NY metro area.
