Flat Waves, having only been open for just a few days, seems like something of an anomaly, slightly out of place in the Emporium at the top of campus.

Living on campus: actually pretty lit Emma Gauthier From Weldin to Burnside to Garrahy, I can confidently say I enjoyed living on campus. I know what you’re thinking, “don’t you have to deal with Resident Advisers, room inspections, roommates, and 3 a.m. fire drills?” Yes. But the benefits to living on campus definitely outweigh minor…
