Yes Okay This is all new as in last year. Yes, this last year was the first year. We were able to use the space Well, we might point out that it's the space between In fact, tell us about the buildings that make up on. Yes. Sorry. I should have some of the beginning So technically we're in the a building which is I say the heart of Pomfret. It's the center At the front desk if we were to Have gone the other way than we came that is our C wing So out here in the courtyard to my right is C wing And then if we were to keep going straight that is our D wing And so this courtyard out here, you'll see C wing to our right D wing to our left C wing is three floors and then our D wing is four floors and They are connected to a of Pomfret and then B is on the south side closer to the doki So technically we're in A right now. Yes And we're gonna look at B. We're gonna look at some residence rooms in B during this tour Yes, we're gonna show you a B wing room, but B, C and D rooms are completely identical Charlotte has a question about these study spaces. Are they open 24 hours a day seven days a week? Yes Never closed off in here and then we also have a classroom and another study space And then you'll see our great room So Pomfret's the one place that there's tons of space for you to sit down by yourself and do homework and A student of Pomfret they can go down to the creative community center actually also can they? If you tune into a doki's live tour, which was yesterday You'll see the creative space in a doki. My glasses are fogging up mass problems, but It's really exciting any Pomfret person can use that space really go look it out If you have an instrument you want to practice which we have a music room But they have more practice studios if you're in band have a music if you're creative again I really don't look at that tour. You'll see how awesome that space is Wonderful. Thank you. Yeah Yes, I feel like I'm taking the spotlight I'm a GA here and I want to say like these study rooms I love them just because of the way like I always see students in them So it gives it a homing feel so always feel the need like if you're a big time studying in your room So feel free to come down here and study So I lived in Humphries freshman year Gregson sophomore year, and then I became a RA in the court. I see so you've been around a couple different ones Now So I'm getting a few reports that it's not that the feed isn't working but Several people are watching at the same time. So we'll we'll keep an eye on that but we're gonna keep on going So there's two laundry rooms We're gonna show you the C and D one and then we'll walk by the B one This is our laundry for C and D residents You'll see our washers on one side or dryers on the other side and then we also have an ice machine So if you ever need ice you can come down here and get some ice For those of you are saying maybe you can't see it this will be archived on YouTube afterwards So you are willing you perfectly find a watch On YouTube afterwards and it should be posted immediately afterwards on Facebook as well Can you tell us a little bit about the laundry alert what happened what it cost to do the laundry? I might need some help with this laundry. It's free in your tuition. You just need your own soap Yes covered in the house You'll just You can come down here and the app tells you when your laundry you put it in so you can set your timer I can get it so you can just move it to the dryer Again come down here know when your laundry is done and take it Perfect. Thank you I use the laundry app and I always found it was very useful before I left my room I would always love to see who was utilizing the equipment and it would tell me if it was free or not So I highly recommend downloading laundry alert if you happen to want to be aware of if it's busy Thank you so much Where should we go next actually Christopher forgive me. I want to take us somewhere Okay, I got reminded because huge recycling person sustainability and I notice our recycling but actually We have a specific area for recycling Take us take us off tour for a moment. Let's do this When we were at the front desk and take theory we're directly under it We have an elevator right here and this is for accessibility From our great room which we're about to see to the front desk and then to pick theory I need to post about this but C wing and D wing do not have an elevator That's the biggest thing I get on move in is no elevator like I'm sorry The building was built before I was born, but no elevator in C and D B wing. There is an elevator Please tell your friends tell your parents tell everyone So be aware. Yes C and D do not have elevators for move in but B does This is our recycling area. So We've come And we are at the first level of a Perfect. Thank you very much Do you want to go this way this way? Yeah, that way. That's it sounds good. We'll head up there If you were living in C wing, this is also a path to the C wing. Okay So now where where are you from get it? I'm from Joshua, Texas. Mm-hmm very small town. I Went to college at Tarleton State University I Received my master's in communication studies and then my first job was coordinator for Greek housing And that's how that's what led me to the dining area There's that study study space again right there now. Who all eats here in this hole? So this is our dining hall Some people call it Plum Frateria It's open to anyone with a meal plan and even the public's well also And this was pre-covid so again, I don't know the details yet, but If you have a meal plan or even you know, you can pay for any dining open in the day They should know I would see her a lot too in here Our launch hours were usually quiet because most students were up the hill So it's a great place if you want some peace or quick meal and then dinner kind of tends to be a little busier Because of a dough he and pot for students, but still like never crazy really fun to see people Correct me if I'm wrong But I think this is the only place on campus where you can get like your ice cream scoop They'd make the pizza for us. This is very important. Let's talk about this. Oh So basically they have like an ice cream station and they have like the flavors you can get your ice cream like freshly scooped they can you can get like Stir-fried freshly made you can get your pizza like made to order. I think it's amazing like I eat here every day I was just telling you about how I miss it. So if you do live in Pomfret I highly recommend coming down the hill for your food because it's it's great Nice and fresh scooped ice cream Oh and their dessert Phenomenally red velvet cake highly recommend it when you do come here I think I think that's all I'm trying to be honest, but everything in there tastes amazing Well, let's head down into the great room and actually I'll give a view right now of the great room and that is a very very great room It's very big forget new stairs to dining hall. We're still in a building. We're like on the second floor Now we're coming back down Again floors are being locked. So you see all our furniture is kind of everywhere This is our great room Again a great room it connects B C&D When I tell students to come see me or meet me I say like the Harry Potter staircase my office is right under the stairs We just walk So you live under the stairs. Yes, if you ever looking for me if I'm not in there might be in a meeting But that's my office We have a kitchen It's different there for a second And so residents can cook their own meals here. Yes, and these are micro ovens so they can microwave but also bake And they do wireless vending I guess that's a fridge where you would want to label your stuff, right? Big TV and so this was another just social And it's connected to our kitchen again in the great room. It is a smart TV. So I love them the day I either saw Smash Bros. Game someone brought down their switch or Netflix log into your cow and people watching whatever series is popular at the time. What are you watching these days? Uh-huh I don't need to put you on the spot. Just curious I've been watching Really how I met your mother that show crazy Just watch the show called shrill on Hulu, it's kind of fun. All right, so this is a music room Yes music room. We have a piano, but I think people with guitars come down here play door shots Another space residents use. I love when I'm at office. I usually hear People play like modern songs, but on the piano. It's like so cool Anything else to see here in the do heat. I'm sorry in in Palmford egg No, if we There's public bathrooms, which we all see there's a refillable drink stations Which are really popular in the hall. So that's just right over there So if you're doing homework out here, like I need to use a restroom. There's just one right there And also a refillable drink station Anything I'm forgetting I've been practicing my mass talk. I did one video earlier in the summer and you could not hear me at all They couldn't use it. I felt so bad There there really is an art to speaking with a mask. That's a little bit different that we're all kind of learning as we go We're passing our service center as a student. You really won't utilize this unless maybe you're lost some people mistake This is our front desk service center is our housing's 24-hour line. So really it's more for Internal purposes, but again, they're really helpful students usually where's the popper front desk and they'll direct you over there Well, that's what I also love about popper. We office so many people. We have service center We have station down her peer ambassadors and then down here you're going to see facilities and if we were to go outside The conduct office also offices in Pomfret B wing, but you have to enter from the exterior A lot of people here What floor are we going to go up to on Pomfret B tower There's eight floors, however in B wing, but the first floor is non residential. This is our first floor And B wing was closed to residents last fall and spring as we did renovation Yes, so this has been closed for a year and really excited that it's not open. You're about to see it. It's beautiful I just wanted to point this out. These are a water refilled station. You'll see Around do you have your own water bottle? I do I have too many that's what my sink is So this is the entrance to B wing. Oh, we didn't show it, but Bc and D you'll have to fall down and so you'll have your key And this is your fall and so like this little box out here There's one outside each wing and so for security purposes, we would fall fall into these doors So because the dining hall every residential wing Have this locked So that's how we enter for B wing your laundry is on the first floor right over here Very similar that we just saw over there We've gotten the question before about ice. There's an ice machine right there. Yes. All the ice This is new, so nice Okay, we'll head on up and just for those watching you may lose the feed briefly while we're in the elevator I feel like the elevator feels pretty fast compared to some of our other elevators. Yeah What are you most excited about that the coming fall and the new students? B wing open so my first year B wing was open, but heavy construction We had none of these fun spaces and then last year B wing was closed So this is my first year here with the whole building open. So I'm really excited What are you most excited about this fall? I think I'm most excited about seeing the pair ambassadors again and just hanging out with my friends again and just getting things back in like a just a Schedule at least, you know, you mentioned LLCs. What is an LLC? So that's the living learning community. So basically it's people who have the same major or shared interest They live in the same community or floor and then the pair ambassadors They plan events for them with a coordinator Just events that they think will interest them engage them in the things that they want to hear about And then they just mingle and just be able to study with their pairs We got a question from Tori who asks will we be going into D the D wing rooms? We won't but correct me if I'm wrong here, but basically they all look alike now except for the accent wall color Maybe but they're all basically the same. Yeah Let's go in there. Let's look at a bathroom to just get a sense of what that is We go in depth we show you bathrooms Water station So this is a viewing bathroom. I will say CNDs. This is the only difference So viewing you're gonna see it's a huge bathroom. You can enter from both sides You'll see there's a spot you enter and you know change your area and there's the actual shower piece And CND It's not You cannot enter from both sides and so it's just four smaller ones But bathrooms, of course, there's not gonna be males or females Around that specific bathroom like this is us. Well, this whole floor is female So both of these will be female bit. We only have three co-ed floors, but there never will be a male or female Bathrooms are gendered Let's go ahead and step out of the bathroom for a minute Mackenzie asks Mackenzie asked if you live in B wing Can you get into the other wings or does someone from that wing have to let you in cross wing? travel, yes Your fob is for your specific wing So for like security you can get into palm fruit and then for B But we asked for CND the same policy of like if you're from B Whoever you're visiting and CND to come escort you as a guest So, yes, if you're in B and you want someone from C to come visit you got to let them in And then Heather asks will we be able to will we be able to see a middle-in room and it's it Why don't we just go and start with the middle-in room? Okay, that's down there. I believe so This is gonna be a majority of not your room just so yes This is the non-standard, but we're happy to show it to you Heather I've been getting a few emails. So just for clarification There's this end room which is very different than the other rooms because it's at the end and then the corner rooms are if You're on the corners and those corner rooms are gonna look the same as the other rooms So there's no corner room difference, but there is a middle-end room kind of difference, right? Okay, let's let's give a view of this quick room We go to the corner room now because it's the same as all the other rooms Karen does ask what is the window measurements in the center-end room? So if you could help me remember to before we sign off go into the center-end room again and get the Window measurement there. Yeah, just before before we can do some measurements in here first Well, let's go ahead and knock it out. Let's go ahead and knock it out now, and you have tape measure tape measure helper maybe about 49 inches Go ahead and give them the depth as well 26 than one-quarter inches depth Okay Height as well if you can get it that'd be great. You might need a assistant there 52 inches height 60 I'm sorry 62 62 inches height for you Karen Tori asks are the beds twin or twin XL? I'd have to refer to that sheet, but I think they are I Think on general beds. They're two different sizes. Is that right? We have a door side and a window side. Is that right? Yeah, we'll check in here. They might be slightly different in this particular room Which is technically a door side bed. That's 38 inches wide 81 inches long and then that's a bed frame How long was this bed right here that we just measured you say 76 So okay, yes So this was 36 inches wide 75 inches long. Okay, and this was 36 inches wide 80 inches long Our website lists the bed sizes and then I know this room's a little different with the windows I've actually emailed it. So I'll be sure to call me Okay, you'll follow up with a comment on this Okay, you're pumped for it all yes Again, the website's really helpful and it lists the dimensions of the mattress and the bed frame As well as the room and then you're gonna notice The wall color is not the same for b-wing. It's not the same on every floor See indeed it's different for wing and so on our website it lists What color your accent wall will be? Castle asks Is that the same measurement in the corner room too and I think we're talking about here The window ledge so we'll go over and go into one of the other rooms now where it's a little more typical Heather asks, where is the TV cable and other plugs on this room? It's right here. That's the TV cable right there But we'll show you where it is in the other ones Can you show the closets in the middle room? Sure. Sure. We'll get that one really quick for you Lila The closets are in wardrobes here So it's a wardrobe like that. Would you mind opening it up? There we go. That's the wardrobe and Heather asked can the beds be lowered? Yes, they can all be lowered They're pretty lofted right now, but they can be lowered very easily We do suggest you bring a rubber mallet if you want to do it yourself Okay, let's head into I guess 706 b706. All right. So here's a bed Charlotte asks, can you move all the furniture around and Currently that's all movable furniture. I don't think that was always the case All all furniture in the rooms and in palm frit are movable now Okay Well, is there are there any dimensions people would like maybe we can actually the will be measure that window That's a pretty long one pretty big one 111 and three-quarters inches is the length of that ledge Keegan asks do we have to If you move to the left of the window the light behind you means I can't see you're too brilliant If you get if you could move Yeah, because when I frame it behind the window, you're so illuminated Okay, so Keegan asked do we have to do a fix-it request to loft or lower beds? You don't have to but I recommend it because you can even put that in now and By the time you get here. However, if you want to you can do it yourself It's fairly easy. You just need about two people and you You can do it yourself or you can turn in a fix-it request Check out so if you're trying to fix a room and we only have they're all checked out and then some of the beds They're so new. It's very difficult for if it's your first time trying to do it And so our maintenance guys some of them know, you know, they do this a lot So submit those work requests now, you know, so they can get it done in time for me Margaret asked my son is in B 326. Does he have a wardrobe as well or open closets? Leela asked us can you measure the top of the desk 35 and 7 8 so basically 36 inches and then About three feet 24 and three quarters in that direction as well and Then cares I'll ask are the rooms in all the wings the same measurement size measurement wise Besides the in room. Yes, and really the rooms in all those there might be some slight variations But for the most part, they're very very similar and then Markel asks how do we send a fix-it request and You can just use the website or the the link housing dot you arc dot edu forward slash Fix it will get you there you can also go to the housing website and go under Services and you'll find about midway down the page fix it and how to submit a sub fix it request there Margaret Ferris asked how far from the floor to the bottom of the bed and keep in mind these beds can be changed in Three inch increments, but right now this one You're doing great, you'll see that there's like this the black bar so that it's almost 24 About 29 inches Tori asks What are the dimensions for between the two closets above the drawers? Where TV would go What are the dimensions for in between the two closets? Yeah, and above the drawers so like you have that space basically How big of a TV can we fit in there? 83 inches But they pretty much are as far apart as they would go in the room right now looks like Okay, okay. We've got a couple more questions coming in. Let's that's what we've got right now We can mention that this is the cable box right here and you have HBO through your housing fees as Well as you know digital cable of all sorts a lot of channels Abby asks are the dimensions of all the furniture in the room sizes on the site and Yes, they are in the university housing site not the move-in site, but the university housing site and they'll be They're listed there with quite a bit of information Asking if dimensions were available for all the furniture Great well, it looks like that's the questions that we've gotten so far and they have been great questions. Thank you for asking them Any parting oh, let's see Abby asked can you use cable or HBO only available if you bring a TV or can you use a laptop? Isn't there a Cox app that you can use to watch remotely? last year there was Not the best cox person, but cox is our channel And there was an app and they'll be here when they were here last year and they'll show you How you can log in to your computer to watch? Channels or what's been shown on TV? You should be able to log in through your computer as well as the television We've got a couple last minutes coming in How there's can one bed frame be broken down and put under the other bed if you have a single room? I would say probably not It doesn't look like the two can be broken down that way. However you can It can be made to take up much less space For people to have a single room. I haven't seen that but I have seen like making this more of a couch or a day bed But if you do have a single room, which means you're paying for a room by yourself You can be as creative as you want Both all the you're still gonna have two sets of furniture, but if you're in a single room, it's free for all yours to use Yeah, you have complete discretion on how you want to use the furniture in your room, of course Charlotte ask how many outlets are there in the room? I wonder if we could do a quick Quick survey of how many outlets Two for each desk it looks like Mm-hmm Okay, okay, great So we've got Ten I think ten is what I'm seeing right now Ten different outlets In one room my gosh Amber ask is there a mirror in the room, and I don't okay. No, there's not a mirror in the room Mackenzie ask can you take the cable box off the wall if you aren't bring a TV and want to put something there instead? Sorry, Mackenzie. We Can't allow you to do that. It doesn't take up too much space as you see And really those those cords can be put behind That right there, so it shouldn't take up too much space, but no we can't we can't have you take it off Amber ask what is the depth of the window ledge and the height of the window? You think we can get both of those for for amber about 61 61 61 inches high 14 and three-fourths wide Her depth I guess yeah Great Abby ask can I put the wardrobe at the end of my bed on the door side? it Yeah, it doesn't look like it would fit there because it would obstruct the door But you can put it in that configuration Where the wardrobe is just on the other side of the door how it's set up now Key can ask are the room doors key or five walks key I Guess thankfully you really can't get locked out unless your roommate looks out which does happen You might forget they're in the bathroom and you're leaving So just communication on like hey, I'm running to the bathroom or you know Keys And yes, what's the length and width of the dresser so do you mind if we get the width the length and width of that dresser? Okay, when the hype to 30 inches high Yeah, do you mind pulling that apart just like 24 and a half right about Okay, right. Well, these are good questions. Glad we can give you some dimensions about the newly renovated palm fruit bee wing Well, I guess we're gonna be seeing these people in the fall. That's exciting We're on Instagram.
