Student persistence has long been valued by higher education
(Glynn, Sauer, & Miller, 2003). Student interaction
significantly impacts persistence rates (Tinto, 1975). The
environment has a major influence on how students interact (Lewin,
1936). One way in which the environment influences interactions is
by a building design (Strange & Banning, 2001), including
residence hall design. Despite theories that building design
impacts interactions, there is little research that explores how
student interaction is influenced as a result of residence hall
design.The purpose of this study was to understand how residence
hall spaces that differ by architectural style impact college
student interaction. Specifically, this study examined interactions
that took place among residents in traditional and suite style
residence halls. This book is addressed to college student affairs
administrators; specifically those working with residence hall
communities, as well as those who develop residence halls or other
campus facilities. It is also addressed to architects and interior
designers who work with institutions of higher learning through the
design or renovation process of residence halls.
