There's no place like home: big porches, small closets and
the eccentricities that make your UD years unlike any others.
Join us for a look inside the houses students call home by clicking on
the images below.

you spend the most spring evenings? Suggest

 It was a duplex, but now it's a six-person house. This summer, it's getting another facelift.

36 Evanston
Five seniors opted for a Marianist house instead of the housing lottery. They keep it clean, cook with fresh produce and even regularly have dinner guests. Oh, did we mention they're guys?

1433 Frericks Way
Six juniors opted for tighter living space so they could have a
place on Frericks. The bonus? Neighbors in the other half of the
duplex.

1522 Frericks Way
They have a bathroom the size of a phone booth and a “little

burn marks on the carpet?

They call it the farmhouse and fill it with art projects.

scary than the one upstairs.

Four seniors — and their beta fish — call it home this year.
