As a four-year residential university, ÎçÒ¹¸£Àû has significantly invested in the residential life experience. In years to come, ÎçÒ¹¸£Àû will rejuvenate the physical spaces along Broad and College streets, reimagining and creating equity in the spaces where juniors and seniors live and interact.

In addition, ÎçÒ¹¸£Àû will develop a fifth Residential Commons to fully develop the Residential Commons system, where first and second-year students experience tradition, build class unity, and cultivate an affinity for ÎçÒ¹¸£Àû.
