<p>I'm a little curious how many dorms have operating elevators on a daily basis. My dorm is supposed to have an elevator, but i think its only for move in and jantorial stuff.</p>
<p>What about you guys? Do you have elevators in your dorms? If you do (and you're at school) do you normally take the elevators or just go up the stairs to your room?</p>
<p>some dorms on my campus have elevators. actually, i think only like three have elevators. two of them are at least 4 floors and the other is three, but its really new. there may be more. </p>
<p>i didn't live in any of them. but most people take the ones on the >4 floors. people with disabilities are put in those dorms so they can get to higher floors, like athletes that get injured and stuff.</p>
<p>All of them except for the one that's only 3 stories do here. Going up six flights of stairs several times a day would not have been fun. But I usually don't take elevators unless I'm going up more than 4 floors, seems like a waste of time.</p>
<p>I know alot of them except the short ones. the dorm i'm living in is 8 stories high and has 2 elevators.... but they are old and they suck. XP but they work</p>
<p>My dorm has an elevator. We're technically allowed to use it whenever, but it moves really slowly and is a bit sketchy (I'm in an almost 100-yr old building), so most of us just take the stairs. We only have 4 floors anyway.</p>
<p>im pretty sure that if its more than one story it HAS to provide an elevator. its a national law. any public place has to give the same access to handicapped people as it gives to all other people. its a fairness thing. its been a while since AP govt, but that's what i remember.</p>
<p>Cronus, that provision is very new compared to many of the buildings at my school (as well as many others). We have five dorms on campus, only two have elevators, and only one does not require a key to use the elevator.</p>
<p>Haha... elevators... I wish.</p>
<p>cronus--i'm pretty sure you're right, but the catch is that things like elevators and ramps and the such don't have to be provided until the building is renovated or updated, so many older dorms that haven't been changed since say the 1950's don't have to have an elevator</p>
<p>My dorm is 8 stories, and Im pretty sure there are elevators...Im on the 6th floor so I sure hope so haha...</p>
<p>Most of the dorms at Dartmouth don't have elevators. Maybe the new ones that were finished this summer. And maybe East Wheelock. But since no dorms are more than 4 stories, we don't really need them.</p>
<p>The dorms here have elevators. As well as the majority of the buildings. At least the ones that I have classes in. :)</p>
<p>There's two elevators here (in the dorms). They're kind of gross and scary. Some upperclassmen said that they used to have carpet in them, but some guys got drunk last year and peed all over the carpet.</p>
<p>Well my dorm has 9 floors and Im on the 9th. Thankfully they have plenty of elevators in operation.</p>
<p>all of the dorms in the section of campus where I live have elevators. Disgustingly, ours is broken right now, but thankfully there's only 3 floors to this building. In the other part of campus with dorms, most of them don't have elevators. They are all 3 floors except the ones with elevators are 6, 6, and 4 floors.</p>
<p>My dorm has two elevators for 4 floors and since Im on the 4th, I take it once and awhile when I'm tired. They're nice and work fine.</p>
<p>My dorm is the only one on campus that has elevators. It's a 7 story building with a basement, whereas the rest are all two or three stories. I almost always take it if I'm going up more than one flight, because I live on the 4th floor, unless I'm feeling fat. I often take the stairs down, though.</p>
<p>Every dorm building on campus has elevators. I usually don't take them to my floor (4th) unless it's really late or I'm really tired from doing something, or if it's already opening (I don't like to wait.)</p>
