> Also no one would consider Tietgenkollegiet in any way typical Danish student housing. I consider it is fair to mention Tietgenkollegiet since this is a discussion around dormitory/college hall architecture and quality. Most of the dorms in Europe and the rest of the world are more similar to normal apartment buildings however unlike Charlie Munger proposal they are lower density (more space per resident in both common and personal areas) and have windows to the outside world. I would expect _any_ proposal to improve on designs to be more livable not less; the increasing in density of dormitories, decreasing common spaces, and removal of windows is indicative of American Decline[1]. Even soviet khrushchyovka[2] from the 60s/70s _are better_ than the proposed dorms and it is something normally derided by American discourse. > starting at $500 a month (not including electricity or heating) That seems very close to UF/UA rent: - https://www.housing.ufl.edu/living-options/rental-rates-2/ https://www.housing.ufl.edu/living-options/rental-rates-2/ - https://housing.arizona.edu/home/rates-applications-policies/rates https://housing.arizona.edu/home/rates-applications-policies... Couldn't find the UCSB monthly rent but seems it would be way higher than the previous two.
