  • Purdue University Dorm Tour of McCutcheon Residence Hall
    Follow me as I show what a typical college dorm at Purdue University looks like. The dimensions of a standard AC double room is 11'6" wide and 16'2" long. These rooms come with closets, which are really useful for keeping clothes and storing useful things.

    -Trash Can
    -Recycling Bin
    -Mattress and Frame for Bed

    I lived in McCutcheon Hall in the 1969-70 school year with my roommate Jim Keogh, whose dad was the mechanical contractor for the building. Jim saw the building before anyone had resided there. Thanks for the tour and memories! In Fall 1970, we moved to Shreve as it opened for the first time. There we met floor mates with whom we have returned to campus for football games since 1974. We are disappointed in the delay of football in 2020, but may see something in the Spring. I hope your Purdue career went well.

    McCutcheon Hall is the best dorm. I had the wonderful opportunity of being at Purdue in an International Program, financed by the US Department of State and the US Embassy in Portugal. I was chosen to represent Portugal. Until this day, still miss Purdue, the dynamics, the spirit, the dorm...EVERYTHING. Thanks for showing Purdue!
