FIRST: Tri-Towers
Tri-Towers consists of three residence halls: Koonce, Leebrick and Wright, with a rotunda in the center connecting the three With Rosie’s Diner and Market and the Tri-Rec gym, Tri-Towers has many options for students.
“I loved how clean and safe everything was,” Cassandra Adams, a Kent State alumni who graduated in 2013, said. “Going to the little grocery shop and stocking up with my roommate. The other girls down the hall who would come visit and shenanigans with them.”
Freshman journalism major Ivory Herman also had a positive outlook on the dorm.
“I get a room to myself and my own space to just relax after long days,” Herman said.

SECOND: Centennial Court
Centennial Courts, which has six buildings, gives students a slightly more private living space than other dorms. Rooming options include single dorms with a shared bathroom with one other room, double rooms with a private bathroom and double rooms that share a bathroom with a neighboring room.
Even though the courts could be seen as more independent compared to other dorms because of the private rooms available, some student found the dorm still offers the sense of community they looked for when moving into college.
“My favorite part of living in the CCA (Centennial Court A) dorm would be its amenities and the room size,” sophomore architecture major Tommy Charnie said. “My favorite memory that is directly related to the dorm would probably be the friends that I have met. The fact that it’s a Centennial dorm makes it stand out to other dorms, in my opinion.”
