*NW35: fourth floor restored to new grad dorm, 97 beds saved*

The GSC is pleased to report that the Institute has reversed its
decision to eliminate the fourth floor from the new grad dorm (NW35).
The restoration of the fourth floor means that new dorm's capacity will
be 548, rather than 451. We look forward to working cooperatively with
the administration on any further issues that may arise during the NW35
construction process.

This situation is described in more detail in a Feb. 9th Tech article:
