Bwog Recommendation:

  • You better be a group of all seniors, otherwise you’re SOL. Also, none of you better be going abroad in the Fall semester, otherwise say hello to Watt, River, or Broadway! There are three 4-person suites and two 5-person suites per floor, so take that into account when it comes time to pick in-person and you have to decide who to drop to online selection (oops!). If all else fails, take an EC high-rise and hope you have better luck during Senior Scramble.

Resident Opinions:

  • “One of my suitemates is absolutely crazy, but I guess that’s my own fault.”
  • “Way better than EC, let’s be real. Easy access to food, bars, and International. What else could you want?”
  • “I didn’t like the aesthetics of EC, the distance and coldness.  It’s like a prison! Hogan is way warmer.”
  • “Wood floors, clean kitchens, big lounges, all singles. Only downside is the hit-or-miss elevator.”
  • “Lack of heating control makes it really hot and uncomfortable sometimes.”
  • “The laundry room is kinda small.”
