The basic companent would be a two bedroom module measuring 12 feet (the maximum trailer width) by approximately 28 teet. Bathrooms, hallways, and 2 stairs would comprise a second module and the common room a third. These rrodules can have completely prefinished interiars including all meehanieal work.

The bedroom unit is organized on three levels to take advantage of the sloping site, to provide additional privacv to four of the eight bedrooms, and to allow the possibility of making these units into apartments by elimina­ ting the center partition.

6. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS: Based on the preceeding analysis it is our opinion that the concept of a six to eight student living unit is valid and can be sucessfutty imple­ mented at Bard Cotlege. It would seemtomeet all major requirements with respeet to site utilization, livability, costs and schedule. As part of a further development and refinement of this concept we would prepare alrger seate and more detailed drawings as welt as seate Second story floor plan and social room. modets of the un its for review by the college. During fabrication, the initial unit could be inspected and minor modifications made. It does not, however, seem practical to errect one complete- prototype on the site and stiil meet the proposed construction schedule for the entire project.
