"In the 70s, it was so drenched in beer that there was a low level throughout the room," says Lerer, who is also a Crimson editor.
Andrew D. Hackbarth '99 says he has proof of the latter theory.

The idea that the layout is "stupid" for living arrangements may be true, but it is ideal for throwing parties.
Each common room can be used for a different type of music or ambiance. And the extra doors that lead out into the hallway improve traffic flow.
"We have this bench which can act as a stage for stage diving and there are bedrooms that can have other uses," says Lee H. Green '99 of the room's other attractions.
