 Although it appears that SSV (as it is commonly referred to by students) is a single continuous building, it consists of three different buildings built next to each other and sharing the same facade; they are commonly referred to as "north", "middle", and "south".Each building has five stories, with dorms on the "north" and "south" sides of the building and an elevator and common area splitting the two sections in the middle.Access can only be gained via ID card scanners.
