Tour de St. Edward.

Now, that's a nice looking loft!

The tour continues! We’re on site with room 304. Here’s what Sted’s juniors Carson, Jason, and David (pictured above) had to say when I stopped by and paid them all a visit…

St.Ed: With three persons in the room isn't it a tight fit?

Juniors: It depends on how you define tight fit. Living within an arm's length or two of your roommates at all times when we're all convened in 304? Sure. (Showering, laundry and deodorant usage abound). But by Hall room standards, we are living the high life. Two room triples are hard to come by, and by our calculations, we have most spacious and well laid out room in the Hall. Those poor fellows in [*insert reputedly small-roomed male dorm here...so any other male dorm*] have it way worse!

St.Ed: How did the building of your loft go?

Juniors: The building of the loft was pretty painless. I actually came back from class one day and POOF there it was! Carson and David knocked it out in no time and they both know their way around a drill bit; so I would have just gotten in the way. 

St.Ed: What you do wish that your room had?

Juniors: Is a jacuzzi too far out of the question? Haha, just kidding...but seriously, like with lights and iPod speakers?

St.Ed: That’s a bit of tall order. Let me work on that. Still, what would you like to see in this summer's renovation?


Juniors: A renovated Sted’s would do well to implement a pool table because what is a gentleman without his billiards I daresay? The nerdy side of me says throw in some small single-table study rooms for group work that doesn't strip the productivity away from everyone in the 4th floor study room. But pool table takes priority over that as well. Still, there are votes making the roof into a common area.  All that prime space is currently just going to waste! I'm thinking we put a hot tub, perhaps a mini-golf course, up there too.

St.Ed: Guys, get out of my mind!!!
