The Village
Check this out: Students helping in the creation of Global Village
Global Village is one of the newest construction projects on campus. The Village will feature apartment living for upper level students (second year and above), and will be located on the academic side of campus. In addition to living spaces, the Village will also be home to a market place, vendors, and an outdoor convertible fireplace-ice rink. The motivation for the new complex is to bring an international influence onto the campus to promote global awareness.
Currently the apartments are in the process of decoration design. According to recent reports every apartment in the village will represent a different global location (though furniture, decorations, etc). Right now the Global Village committee is looking for student input and aid in decorations. They are looking for students to submit original photos from overseas locations that can be used as decoration. [Check out http://finweb.rit.edu/housing/forms/GVPhotoFlyer.pdf for more information]
