I graduated high school around that same time and we would go up from time to time to UMass. It always seemed exactly that way to me as well. Those huge 20 or more story dorms were basically like housing projects.

The area with the 22 story dorms is called Southwest. I lived in one of them for four years. There something like 8,000 students in an area of probably 20 acres. This is an example of government planning. It is interesting that you could see the place for what it was and I could too. I wonder how many other people have or had the same sense but just put up with those miserable conditions just to fit in?
