Bwog recommendation:

Hewitt is the place for those of you who are introverts and don’t mind living in the midst of jumpy freshmen. These singles offer you a quiet place to study and contemplate your assignments. However, if your room faces the quad then you will most likely wake up to construction in the morning. Other than that Hewitt offers you the luxury of being on campus and close to the Barnard gym. 

Resident opinions:

  • “The bathrooms are insanely cold in the mornings.”
  • “I enjoy the natural light that comes through the window.”
  • “I enjoy the view of the quad!”
  • “The water in the showers is cold some of the time.”
