context_section_description: Townhouse Apartments - Each Townhouse is a four-person apartment with two double rooms and a bathroom upstairs. A kitchen and living room on the first floor. The Townhouses are generally used for senior and junior housing.
  Riverside Apartments - Each Riverside apartment contains a first floor with kitchen and living room. The upstairs varies and will house four people. Two singles and a double bedroom or two doubles. The Riverside apartments are generally used by juniors and seniors.
  Woodstock Village - Woodstock apartments are for three to seven people with many different configurations. A four-person style has a living room, kitchen and four private bedrooms. Woodstock Village is used by seniors and a few juniors. In Summer 2011, a renovation of all 10 WSV buildings began. As of Summer 2014, the final building has been renovated. The buildings were renovated in an "Adirondack Style" and enjoy many upgrades to bring them into the 21st century.
  Price and Graham Hall - Still known as "The New Dorms" although built in the 1960s, they consist of the Price and Graham complexes, each split into four Houses. The Graham Hall complex consists of Donahue, Olson, Van Note, and Wilson Houses, while the Price Hall complex consists of Farrisee, Newell, Ormsby, and Thomas Houses. Newell House and Ormsby House are reserved for the Clarkson School and the Honors Program. There are a few styles of rooms. Most are four-person suites containing 2 double bedrooms linked by a common bathroom. The other four-person suites are composed of a single double bedroom and two single bedrooms which share a single bathroom. There are a handful of single double bedrooms, which have their own bathroom. These few double bedrooms are much larger than any other suite. The center core of both complexes formerly housed cafeterias. The center core of Graham Hall is now the Service Center, Student Administrative Services, Payroll and other administrative departments. The center core of Price Hall is now the Clarkson School/Honors offices and the Air Force ROTC. These two complexes were planned to be the on-campus Greek housing, but admission growth pressures caused them to be used as ordinary dormitories. Each house was to be a separate fraternity or sorority.
  Moore House - Generally inhabited by juniors and sophomores, it is the closest residential building to Snell Hall and the Science Center. Moore is divided into two wings and a center core. The first three floors of each wing contain two doubles with a common bathroom.  All four floors in the center core contain doubles with private bathrooms, and the fourth floor of each wing contains a five-person, a six-person, and an eight-person suite. Moore House underwent a full renovation, including the addition of the fourth floor from 2011 to 2012.
  The Quad - Used for freshman housing. The Quad is composed of four buildings- Ross, Brooks, Cubley, and Reynolds Houses – linked by the Ross-Brooks Marketplace, between Ross House and Brooks house. The laundry facility as well as the RA office are located between the four houses in the center core of the Quad. It is possible to move between Ross and Brooks without going outside.  The Quad buildings had a fourth floor addition during the summer of 2009. The center core of the quad, on the Cubley-Reynolds side houses Quad 200 which is used for First-Year Seminar classes. This new classroom is in the former Empire Diner location.
  Hamlin-Powers ("The Pit") - Hamlin Powers houses all levels of students. The buildings were renovated in 2003, and a fourth floor was added in 2010. The fourth floors consist of single-rooms which have great appeal to students who prefer private living quarters. Rooms in the first, second, and third floors of the buildings are double occupancy.
