John Jay is a first year residence hall. The building is located at the corner of 114th St and Amsterdam, with its entrance on the campus side.
Not to be pronounced Juan Jé or John Jizzle.
Residents of John Jay 5 (the lowest floor with residents) are legendary for their refusal to take the stairs, even though this only exacerbates the elevator problem.
