Residential College
The College of Cultural and Community Studies, simply known as CCS, is a small residential college located in the North Campus frat quad. CCS shares a building with GREEN House (check out our video on GREEN House to see the facilities!), but their programming centers on different communities and cultures. According to the CCS website, the dorm’s collective “love of diverse cultures and concern for our local and global communities” attracts students of all majors, though the building is physically near the Technological Institute. In addition to programming like trips to Chicago and faculty firesides, CCS has several traditions including a fundraiser called Service Auction and Secret Satan, where residents steal each others’ clothes before Halloween. With loftable beds, comparatively large rooms and sleek shared facilities renovated within the past few years, the building itself is one of the nicer ones on campus.
