<p>I've been looking at Cal's housing and I don't understand what Cheney, Deutsch, Freeborn and Putnam mean... are those themes or just names of halls? I also can't seem to find information on the differences between them... are there any links?</p>
<p>Those are the four high rise buildings in Unit 1. They should all be pretty much the same, except that Freeborn is substance-free, meaning that the people who choose to live there all agree to not do any substances. When you apply for housing, you only apply for the unit, and they randomly assign you to a hall, unless you apply for one of the theme programs, such as substance free or asian/pacific islander.</p>
