Fifty years ago Morrill was full, all quads, 16 people per suite. Around campus it was known as "The Zoo."

Horrible. I started my freshman year in Morrill (with 4 in a room) but was fortunate enough to transfer to a different dorm halfway through the first semester.

Thanks for the memories. I lived on the 22nd floor of Morrill Tower in 1971. one of my suite-mates was John Kasich who ran for president a few years ago. Oh, and the windows DO open. One of my suite-mates had a cat who peed on his roommates pillow once too often. Yes, the cat went out the window and landed on his feet 22 stories below. Yuck.

My suite mates got drunk and high every night, had a pet wasp on a string and smashed the windows out on the 17th floor sucking all the heat out of the building in winter. Let the good times roll! RO

I lived in Lincoln in 1998 and it was actually pretty nice. Just 2 people in the room. Nice little shower set up in the suite. Honestly it was much nicer than a lot of my friends living arrangements. The elevator was a pain in the ass Sometimes but that was about it. When I was there we had someone come in and clean the bathroom once or twice a week I think. The janitorial staff. So our bathroom was very clean. Way cleaner that bathroom which was trifling by the way. Clean it up y’all lil nasties. Long ass walk to High st though. Plus we were cool with everyone on our floor. And found ourselves jumping from suite to suite all the time.

I loved Morrill! Lived in a dbl, roomate never stayed over, so it was basically a single, rode the elevator to work at the housing office, road the elevator to breakfast, lunch and dinner. Game days had good energy, met plenty football players, went to school with mega stars, Troy Smith, Ted Ginn, Santonio Holmes, Greg Oden, Mike Conley, Dequan Cook! Went on trips with different programs to New Oreans and Florida, experienced great fball and bball games, had my share of experiences with the ladies, and partying and thats just the beginning....Ohio Sate grew me into a man! Go Bucks!!!

I lived in Lincoln in the 80s....16 roomates a room. Two bunks per room. It was impossible to study in your room. You couldnt study in the common room either. It was tough duty. The only plus was every other floor had girls. You met alot of people, which is a definite plus. Go Bucks.

I spent a month looking at it while my dad was in The James. ... It could be worse. The founder of my company went to OSU shortly after the Korean War. The campus was overcrowded with GI Bill students. As a result his dorm was in The Shoe! They converted some storage rooms into dorms and they had to just shower in the locker room. He said they froze that winter.

The architect of the prison cell you call a home definitely had mind control on his mind the architecture is meant to demoralize a Soviet tactic. The demoralization is meant so that you see the authority system as god. Probably a bunch of masonic architecture and symbolism look for a dome in a penis the perverts put the s*** everywhere. Just look at the turnpike rest areas all across the state of Ohio

One last comment, what's really ironic is my son's girlfriend moved into Lawrence Tower yesterday. I think the towers have a rival for worst dorm now. It's like they didn't even try when they converted the Holiday Inn on Lane into Lawrence Tower. Only saving grace is the air conditioner in the wall🤣 Otherwise, it's a pretty crappy dorm room. Looks to be a half mile from most class rooms and you need to walk all the way to Morrill to find the closest dining hall...is that correct?

LOL, I'm friends with a guy who was one of Dahmer's roommates in the towers. Moved my son in to Baker yesterday. Perfect room, 1st floor, corner, easy exit door overlooking South Oval. I lived in Smith before they connected it to Steeb. I posted a reply on here that there were 18 to a suite when I went to school, but I think that's incorrect could have been 24? How many doubles are there per suite? 4 or 8? All i know is, when i went to OSU the doubles you mention were quads.
