Lyman Tower

“The stereotypes are only partially true. While Lyman does tend to draw more studious introverts, I have found that we are really not much more secluded than any other hall,” said first-year Ethan Scardina, a resident of the Lyman Tower.

The Tower is a section in Lyman occupied by first-year, upperclassmen and  transfer students of mixed genders, and is often described as a section  which isolates itself, with individuals only making friends within the Tower.  It is separated from the other sections of Lyman by both a door and the hall’s  main lounge.

“There isn’t as much interaction [between  the] Tower to A section and B/C section as there is between A section and B/C section,” said Scardina.

However, Scardina and other Tower residents are making  an effort to increase interaction between Lyman sections, and reject the idea  of an overarching stereotype for the Tower.

“No stereotype can perfectly  describe an individual; you’ll just have to come chill with us for that,” said Scardina.
