<p>The faculty don't live "with" the students though... just in the same building. Apartments are all-students. No self-respecting faculty member would want to be around anyone who's keeping to a student schedule.</p>
<p>Of course, in that building, there's a bunch of open-market apartments for lease. My friends are in one of them (just graduated). So basically it's not really a dorm at all, just general apartment mayhem.</p>
<p>It sounds like the professors do share common space and laundry facilities though...there's potential for interaction without confrontation/strict supervision. </p>
<p>When I was living in Claremont we'd actually get emails from Dean Quigley's secretary about how the dean (who lived next door) had seen us on the roof or was ****ed off about the noise- and would start suspending privileges if we didn't stop. It reminded me of the disciplinary lectures I had to endure at my Catholic high school...</p>
<p>The nice thing is, you guys are adults, and if they want to "bust" you for something relating to your residence, it had better be done through legal channels. The NYPD are very used to noise complaints and are very professional about it - and yet I doubt he ever made a complaint. Academic sanctions for residential disputes are the stuff lawsuits are made of, and Quigley sure knows it. I'd put that in the category of "vague, meaningless threats". He wasn't going to do squat, you were just willing to be afraid.</p>
<p>In either case, I imagine the professors at Cathedral Gardens are going to have more to worry about from the open-market apartments than from the students living in the dorms.</p>
