East Campus dormitory is the largest dorm on the MIT campus, home to 400 students.
East Campus is composed of two separate buildings, each with five floors.
5W is the fifth floor of the west building, with about 40 residents. All sections have their own bathroom, stairwell and trash chute. All bathrooms have two regular stalls and two showers. The bathrooms are co-ed. This may seem strange at first, but it works out well.
