In part because there are so many people that
live here, there's a huge range of people
that you're meeting every single day.
You have like athletes, you have people that
are really into art and music, and you have
people that are super into history and economics,
and everything in between and I think for
me it's just been the most diverse experience
in terms of who you're living with, of course
the campus has tons of people all over the
place, but it really lends itself to allowing
a lot of different people to come together.
And the different styles of rooms we have
singles and doubles and quads that that in
itself adds a little variety.
In Copeland every year we have the Copeland
Game which we're leading up to right now actually
and it's kind of like the Olympics within
Copeland so each wing, we have A, B, C, D,
E, F, and G wing so there's a lot.
Essentially each wing competes against each
other and each wing will be a different color
and every day one of the R.A.s or wings will
host an event essentially and it could be
anything from decorating your hall to tug-of-war
or frisbee tournaments, anything like that
so that happens every year.
It's just a really social, fun atmosphere.
So they're bringing in a STEM community presumably
one wing or a couple floors of one wing of
Copeland will be lead by an R.A. that is in
the field or interested in the field in some
area of STEM.
They'll work closely with the STEM departments
on campus to create events and make connections
faculty wise off-campus, but it's essentially
just an area in which people with similar
interests can come together and really use
that particular shared interests to create
their own community.
