In some cases, men and women live on separate floors; in others, men and women live adjacent to one another. The gender layout is generally determined based on bathroom accommodations. In almost all cases, separate bathroom facilities are designated on each floor and wing. Most halls are open to all levels of students. Farrand and Sewall are reserved for freshmen and sophomores. Reed is generally open to non-freshman or graduate students only. Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)-accessible facilities are available. All residence halls have full-time, professional hall directors, chosen for their solid understanding of college students and residence hall life. Each floor also has a resident advisor (RA), a sophomore or an upper-division student with the experience, knowledge, and training to answer the student's questions and serve as a resource and a liaison to the campus community. Housing and Dining Services provides wired high-speed Internet connectivity to all student units, one jack per unit. Each room also includes a phone jack and cable service.
