Eli men dominate party suites
Yale’s party suites, from Saybrook’s “12-Pack” to the Davenport “Cottage,” have more in common than offering beer kegs and spacious common rooms for students in their respective colleges.
As most residential colleges are wrapping up their housing draws this month, a final tally shows that of out of seven residential colleges that will include party suites next year, five will be all male and two will be both male and female.
A noticeable trend in occupancy reveals that these social hubs steadily attract the y-chromosome year after year. While there are no official records...
I feel like I'm reading something from The Onion.
When was there an all-female God Quad other than last year and the other year mentioned by Master Smith (which was in the mid 1990s)? Does the YDN fact check these own articles?
"As most residential colleges are wrapping up their housing draws this month, a final tally shows that of out of seven residential colleges that will include party suites next year, five will be all male and two will be both male and female."
Two will be both male and female? I thought co-ed suites had not been approved? What am I missing?
evolutionary psychology suggests that men want to spread their seed as quickly as possible while women must be more selective since they can only reproduce once every nine months.
Some "party suites" are actually a collection of dorm rooms grouped in an area, such as Pierson's lower court.
evo psych is such a crock. Really, is this the best it can do? Pathetic...
Best party suite of all time at yale was Calhoun's The Dime, 10 girls, two floors, two common rooms, two years in a row (2005-2007). Do some research!
This article is pathetic. Why, exactly, do we care? And evolutionary phychology. Ga!
"while men, in order to reproduce their genetic stream, would want to be exposed to as many women as possible"
wow... poor choice of words.
