At Nebraska we call them open air dorms, or OA's, due to the fact that the fire marshall says (or said in the past) that a window always has to be open at all times.
My house has actually renovated our OA's over the past 10 years, the one on the third floor is now our rec room with a pool table, TV, Foosball, and monster stereo. The 2nd floor OA is being renovated this summer to become a 4 person room, thus upping our capacity to 64 guys. This is due to, as Tom said, more desire for everyone to their own more private space.
