Illinois Street Residence Hall
From U of I Wiki
Illinois Street Residence (ISR) Hall is a dorm which houses over 1,100 students. In the fall semester of 2006, freshman comprised half of the hall while upper-classmen comprised the other half. ISR is one of the few residence halls on campus which contains air conditioning units within each room. ISR is a 4-5 minute walk to the Union and one of the central locations to each lunch during a passing class period.
ISR consists of two living quarters. Wardall (taller tower) is co-educational, while Townsend (shorter but U-shaped) houses only men. Though women and some men are separated by living quarters, residents still share a common area which includes the dining hall, lounges, computer labs, laundry areas, study carrels, and library.
