Anchor housing

No change in size, 11:35, October 14, 2005
Description
Anchor housing restricts the room draw to a small cluster of dorms. Houses on campus will be divided into five clusters, each containing approximately six houses and one "anchor" house chosen to serve as the social hub of the cluster. Rising sophomores will form groups of six, and each group will be randomly assigned to a cluster. Upperclassmen will choose rooms in a lottery exclusive to own cluster for the remainder of their Williams career. Students remain in the same cluster.
The housing system was formed with the following goals in mind, as presented by the CUl CUL at two informational forums in 2004:
* '''More autonomous social life''': more local control, funding, and energy; less dependence on ACE; more variety - parties, big weekend traditions, intramurals, faculty interaction
