I can understand this. I've seen a fraternity house where the rooms that went to freshmen were quads set up as follows:
- A triple bunk against one wall. The lowest level was pretty much on the floor, then there were two more tiers above that.
- The fourth bed was suspended from the ceiling at the same height as the highest tier of the triple bunk.
- Floor space (aside from the triple bunk) was occupied by desks.
Sit up from bed too fast and you'd hit your head. Heaven help you if you were a tall guy.
My husband told me that he rushed a fraternity where the freshman rooms didn't have windows. (He never joined a fraternity. We went to the same school, and at the time, all fraternity pledges moved into the house as soon as they signed.)
Anyway - congrats to your cousin on joining Tri Delta.
