Meadows Complex
The Meadows Complex on Wheaton's lower campus is made up of three separate wings: Meadows North, Meadows East, and Meadows West. Each building contains single and double rooms and the floors are co-educational community-style with residents sharing a common bathroom and shower facilities. Meadows North contains two all-female floors. All buildings have a multi-purpose common area with couches, cable television, and a microwave on its first floor.
A main complex connects all three Meadows buildings, while each building features separately secured access for safety. Meadows complex has a large centralized lounge with couches, a television, and a pool and ping pong table. Additionally, the second floor of the complex features tables and chairs for quiet studying. This common area provides Meadows residents with a close knit environment for the men and women who live in its halls. Vending machines and a laundry room are also located in the Meadows complex.
