Room 401 in 1903 Hall is a two-room triple that is "all about the common room" Cate Adams '08 says. Cate and her suitemates, seniors Emily Stehr and Nicole Velasco, pay for that luxury by sharing a tiny bedroom.
The girls are more concerned with creating a great place to hang out with friends than with having space to themselves. They've even named the room, calling it "the beginning and the end," because they want to make it the place to start and end the night.
The theme of the room is "eclectic chaos." Posters from the girls' homes — in Hawaii, Nashville and San Francisco — and also from their travels everywhere from New Zealand to Italy. The girls got all of their furniture for free, and if a chair or couch is too plain, they throw a unique cloth or sheet over it.
Nothing is conventional about the room: People generally enter from the window, there is a "Zen corner" with a fridge and relaxing red lighting made from an umbrella and a moose head, christened "Flavor Flav," carries the clock around its neck. The girls have known about the room for two years and have been planning to take it over since then: "This room was a legend in '06," Adams says. "And we want to bring that reputation back."
