[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP can you please explain what the difference is between this, and typical dorms? Thank you. [/quote] Here is Yale’s explanation: “https://yalecollege.yale.edu/residential-colleges”. Wikipedia also has some discussion. The details will vary a bit from college to college, but the general principle is that students live and eat together in a single community for all 4 undergraduate years. This is different from a “dorm” where students can change from one dorm to another unrelated dorm during their undergraduate years and there really is not a concept of eating meals together. Oxford University is the origin of this model, at least for the English-speaking world.[/quote]
