> eight students to share one bathroom Ha. Orchard Hill @ umass, 4 identical 7 story building around a circle of grass. We had windows, but they were a very small part of the back wall (they did let air/light in). I can't recall looking out, though it wasn't really scenic. I think it was 30 people per bathroom (2 bathrooms per floor). Each floor had 2 "study lounges" with tables and wall to wall windows and a balcony. To date myself, we had newly installed network access: 9600 baud to the computers on campus. There was an icecream bar vending machine in the laundry room, which was oddly cheap and memorable. It was serviceable, and being on top of a hill, your fitness improved. Its still there (the dorm, vending machine is probably long gone..), probably almost 40 years old at this point. https://www.umass.edu/living/residence/orchard/dickinson https://www.umass.edu/living/residence/orchard/dickinson
