I do wonder if it's hard to keep people living on the dorm floor these days when the off-campus (or even on-campus in some cases) competition is better.
It's one thing to have members live in dorms if everyone is living in dorms. It's something else if the norm is to live off campus after freshman year, except for the Greek women who might have to live on the hall. I suspect they like living on the hall but would like something nicer. (At this point aren't even the hill dorms going on at least 20 years since the last big renovation?)
I agree with you that it's going to need some working out since it's less well defined than the old dorm floors plus chapter rooms, and that this plan seems to suggest a weird mix of uses that might end up troublesome.
I'm not generally sure that it makes sense to have undergraduate housing mixed with classroom space. It just seems like you are asking for some noise issues.
Similarly, what independent wants to be living above or below a chapter room during any kind of event?
Do you suppose the idea there is that they can mix funding for the project?
