<p>Anyone know anything about living at Bingham Hall? Are the suites typically large? Any other info would be really appreciated too! Thank you!</p>

<p>You might be able to find something on google or facebook. A quick search yielded: [Wenjie’s</a> Campus Exploration Reports: Bingham Hall ?

<p>The library described in that article is for graduate students, and is not open to undergrads. All of the Old Campus dorms are pretty similar, with suites that consist of a common room and a number of bedrooms, generally a mix of singles and doubles. They’re all decent, but some are nicer than others, depending on when they were renovated.</p>

<p>Here’s an article that’s about a decade old with some more specifics: [Make</a> yourself at home: frosh housing | Summer 2001](<a href=“yaleherald.com”>yaleherald.com)</p>

<p>Thank you I’ve seen both of those articles! I guess what I meant is, how do the Bingham rooms compare to the other Old Campus rooms, but that’s hard to answer. Also, does anyone know if the bathrooms are in-suite?</p>

<p>“Bingham (for Calhoun and Trumbull) are pretty middle of the road - not a lot of singles and there’s not much room …”</p>

<p>“I need to defend Bingham’s honor. It isn’t that bad. The rooms are not that small at all, our common room is spacious, we have a lot of singles (my suite had 4 singles - maybe this is only the Calhoun side of Bingham, or maybe just my entryway), we have one of the 2 laundry rooms in the basement, elevator in the tower (which makes moving in and out A LOT easier, even if you have to cross over on the 5th floor), and the Chaplain’s Office (with free ice cream and goodies) in the basement.”</p>

<p>“Bingham is still quite nice. The rooms are small, but it is a very interesting building, and the tower has an elevator. And there are more singles than L-W or Vanderbilt, and some large suites, which is nice to have.”</p>
