We've got Yocum Hall right next door Yeah, let's take in the full Brett the ten floors of Yocum. Oh There we go. You can also see The hyper you can see see what you're seeing here You've also got a couple classrooms on the other side right there So Humphreys is very centrally located campus So it's a great place to live for all of your general elective classes that you'll be taking and you're near everything and everyone So it's awesome. So what we're gonna do is go inside here in a second Take a live tour of the hall and see a couple key points in there and then check out one of the rooms So you can hopefully plan a little bit better for your move-in process And speaking of the move-in process it actually happens if you're here Down here is where you will be pulling in this parking lot right here and Yeah, and I guess there's a couple of chairs here. It's quite a bit of a picnic area. Yeah, so we'll follow you in now And feel free to ask us any questions if you have any as we go just bob this in thank you Can't hear our safety protocol there. So you have to have a fob to get into the building So we'll go this way first. Yeah, sure. This is the main great room show the water dispenser always nice Exactly and it keeps actually a count here of how many bottles we've filled And we encourage you to bring your own bottle to campus in order to use that So this is the kitchen on the first floor. It's a full kitchen fridge Stove oven microwave sink So just those even usually dishes that are stocked up here, but we suggest bring your own and you can use the kitchen Most of the time it rains unlocked, but if not, you just ask the front desk and they'll lock it for you So it's free for your use anytime you need it and fully functioning microwave They're fairly new I mean as you can see they're stainless steel They're fairly new and they work perfectly well, and you brought your own you brought your own pot and pan Is that right? Yeah, what was your what was your what would you recommend to bring as far as kitchen stuff? If you plan on cooking anything even ramen I suggest bringing two bowls two plates a small set of silverware a cookie sheet a pot Okay, that's really all because I never cooked anything more than mac and cheese and ramen the occasional grilled cheese But that's really all and you can plug our Pinterest page Yes, yeah, because you you're actually want to put together a lot of the recipes Yeah, so if you go to our Pinterest page, you'll see a few different boards You'll see one of them being one titled foodies and it's all kinds of yummy recipes that you can make from your dorm room With what you have there and super cheap. There's healthy. There's unhealthy. There's your junk food There's your movie watchers snacks and everything like that. So there's all kinds of ways to Revamp the cheap dorm food that you need to buy because we're all on a budget here sounds good Okay, we'll head on a little further on the first floor here of Yocum Sorry, I'm freeze we did Yocum earlier. They are kind of similar in a lot of regards, right? Little bit differences. This is the main great room. Yeah, this is a big one It goes all the way around here too Lots of furniture if you watch the Yocum one all the furniture is essentially the same Mm-hmm, and try to get some of that Right, right And actually last year the music LLC stayed here So that piano is I don't know who the well these LLCs here my freshman year But that piano got used a lot really people were like really playing. Oh, yeah, there's all these music Okay, that's always fun. Yeah, so then over here. There's all the lounge area tables chairs couches There's noise canceling chairs that have plugs in them So people come down here study all the time. It's really nice and it's always There's always people down here. It's a good social atmosphere, too. So bad. There's also a TV. Yeah There we go, and that's a pretty big TV You might not be able to tell from the scale here, but as we walk closer to it it gets bigger and bigger It's uh, I don't know maybe 80 80 inches. Yeah So you can watch all your programs together. Yeah, did you ever do any of those sort of like nights where you're watching out of the Walking dead Okay, okay About that but that TV was ours on Monday night. Were you a pretty good guesser on who it was gonna be? I asked reality Steve Who is reality Steve? He gives you all the answers. Oh, oh cheat. Okay. All right, so let's let's point out the I guess the mailboxes And you just to the code and open it up and your mail be in there now your packages Yeah, and I think that's where we're going next so excellent Over to the front desk we go And again, if you have any questions feel free to ask them we're gonna be heading upstairs at some point looking at one of the rooms Yeah, you want to talk about the yard We want to go out there. It's actually almost raining Let's see That's the other side of the entrance that we came in let's go ahead and head out there see it I think I think we can you can see roughs windows from out here. Uh-huh, which is most likely where all of you will be dining Pretty much every day. Okay So you can see There's a little yard right here and in this yard Happens to be where a big like social aspect is to and that's people play soccer frisbee football This yard right here, right? Yeah, so there's the dining hall graph that you can see right into from here you can see people eating even as we speak Okay, we'll head back in Really the RAs are very well thought of here like superheroes Sure where you would come to get your packages if they were bigger than the mailbox Do you mind if we say hello to you? Hi, hey, what's your name Ashley Ashley? What are you doing for us today? I am a conference assistant So I am basically running the front desk as what an RA during the school year for the summer Gotcha. Gotcha. Many people come in and out or we have some camps here. Is that right? Do you know what the camps are right now? Yeah, we have our ASAP summer bridge Which our students are here for about a month before classes start just to get a head start and get familiar with Campus and going through some summer courses. Yeah. Oh, well fantastic See, there's a nice little I like that The smiling face with the glasses I'm digging it. Okay. Thank you very much. Yeah, let's move on. Let's go down into the the basement area, right? Okay, hey, how are you? Seven wonders of the world right here Has it Vending machine area right there So that's pretty a pretty full kind of classroom layout there where they can have meetings and Discover new things and use the whiteboard to document it Okay showing off this tile a little bit. It's actually kind of a smooth tile All right, you're wearing the laundry room. Yes Step out so we can hear you a little better. That's there's a bit of a sound there In the fall, there's gonna be a laundry alert and you pull that up on your phone And they'll tell you which washers and dryers are empty and which are taken and then You can also when you're ready to do your laundry you put your laundry in there And have it send you an email or text alert based on What time is going to be done? So if you want to have time to be able to run a class you want to do a laundry It'll text you when your laundry is done. And so That's a good way to be able to fit in class in between doing laundry Or if you don't want to sit down here and watch your laundry the whole time It'll notify you when it's done so that we just come right back and unload it. It's really awesome And you don't want to leave your laundry, you know all day in a dryer So no this way you know where it is and where it's going Fantastic anything else here An interesting detail that we're not gonna necessarily show off but is here is there's a lot of Phone booths down here And so if you live here, you'll get that you'll have fun discovering these little nooks where the landline phones used to go Let's go to the sixth floor So we're gonna finish off our tour by going upstairs on the sixth floor and we're gonna look at a bathroom and Study room and then a bedroom and then a bedroom so Humphreys is very similar to Yoko, but Is nine floors not ten and has about four hundred and thirty students as opposed to five hundred students So it's still a pretty pretty large residence hall But the community here is a lot of fun and makes it feel small Pretty much everyone ends up friends. It's a community in itself And you lived in sort of the sister hall of Yoko Yeah, these would be what we consider our high-rise traditional residence halls for people who went to college back in my era They would do things as the very traditional style Benjamin the laundry texting system We're gonna be rolling that out in August and happy to tell you more about how to use it at that point There will be some detailed instructions on how to use it. Thanks for asking. So this is the study room. Each floor has one They're furniture. There's a TV and always people in here. Yeah They'll study pretty much the whole time people sleep in here. They fall asleep in here from studying There's just always something going on. We've had pizza parties up here. Like I said, it's a great community So someone is like hey, I'm buying pizzas and even want to help chip in and there's parties up here It's it's fun. So everyone will just gather eat pizza and hang out and talk. It's it's a good time I've heard that Here in the high-rises the floors really take on their own identity. So like you identify was I'm floor number four I'm four number six. I'm four number seven. Each floor is known for something and as you move in and get to know people Um, and you guys all bond you'll you'll realize which floor has a reputation for what? I see okay. Well, um, let's be sure we look at the window when we go into one of the rooms I guess the better view might be on this side. Yeah, I think that's right. There's more they're both nice views, but that's uh A little bit more. Okay, so let's go over to the restroom. Yes just in case okay We just want to make sure that we're not stepping in anyone's time private time so here's the showers and Let's see. I'll step in there for a second and give you a little bit more of a view So here we are in the shower. It's just Two of the different showers right here And then can we have Two of these on each floor do we have? Yeah, there's two for each side of the hall So this side of the hall has two bathrooms that side of the hall is two bathrooms And then each floor then has four Depends. It's a co-ed dorm. So it depends on which floor is all male all female or co-ed Uh, I don't know. I actually am not sure how this has an all male No, it's just every floor is co-ed. I know you'll come to have a big step, but There are at least four showers per gender per floor So and that doesn't sound like a lot, but students are never Waiting for a shower. Everyone's got different schedules. It's not Not a huge fight To get there in the morning Okay, so let's go into a room. Uh, well actually we're going in 602. Yes, we can go the other side I'm going to window later Okay, so let's come on in here. We are in the room 602 And as you can see There's one bed right there. It has this. Uh, what is it called stabilization bar? Yeah, these are these lobs are one piece They're not sort of top and bottom. They're lighter wood construction. So they have a stabilizer bar That you need to have on the bed at all times If your if your bed is low the bar needs to be on which is the configuration here, right? And if and over here It's the same thing If the bed is high the bar needs to be at the bottom of the bed Okay, so that just kind of holds everything tight and makes us good and solid That's pretty straightforward and then I'll go ahead and show off some of this furniture So you've got plenty of storage space there. In fact, that's one of the things they uh I've been told is really good about yokem and home freezes the amount of yeah the amount of storage space you have Let's go. I was actually going up top first you want to put that up for Yeah, okay, so each one of you will get one of these and then you'll have this bureau area So you have three of those or two of those? There's three. They're really deep in like long drawers too So, um, there's plenty of space I brought all four seasons worth of clothes and kept it in here perfectly fine Um, any thoughts on lofting the beds? I know it's a question that gets asked a lot. Did you loft your bed? In the middle ish, so I just kind of Hop up a little right, but then I was able to fit a mini fridge. I was able to fit drawers and Microwave everything fit under my bed so I could have the floor space So, uh, I mean, I'm a really social person so the floor space meant that I could have people over. Oh, yeah important to me, so That's what I did Oh, so do you want to show us the trick with the uh, with the chair? Kind of a cool thing. This chair is kind of a dual purpose They're just a regular office chair and they are also Oh And then like the little side table Ah, okay. It's perfect to tuck that away when you're just trying to work And then if you want people to come over and have a place to sit because clearly there's not a lot of sitting here That turns into a little seating area. Perfect. Thank you Well, uh, let me open it up to questions to make sure that uh, we've got a tape measure in hand You can measure anything you'd like right now a lot of the measurements, uh from Humphreys are going to be the same as the ones we took from yokem Um, but now is the time if you have any questions for us Well, let's um try to get a view I guess outside of the other window if we can and uh The aria room? Great. Should I go to that? So we'll go to an aria room and then we'll sign off Now this is an aria room keep in mind so you won't be No one's room will look like this Yes, your room will not look like this, but we did want to use the Yeah, the window to give you a really nice view of things And we're not on the top floor But you can see that it's very green. It looks like it's about to rain honestly here. So we'll see Uh, there's budwald marina and uh Yeah You want to say goodbye for us? See you guys in the fall. Okay, turn them in Thank you
