Commons South

Commons South (CMS) is a five-story traditional residence hall of double-occupancy rooms, which open into a common hallway with two community bathrooms shared by each floor community. Adjustments related to COVID-19 will see Commons South units reduced to from double occupancy to single occupancy for Fall 2020 in an effort to reduce occupancy density in the community. This will also allow residents of Commons South the benefit of a room design appropriate in size for two occupants all to themselves.
