McBain Hall
McBain is a residence hall that mostly houses sophomores in doubles.
Doubles in the McBain shaft are considered to be among the worst rooms at Columbia. They are typically selected as 'blind' doubles in General Selection. They range from 195 to 209 sq ft. Due to the shaft, they have no views, and are hot, noisy, and dark. The 06 and 25 lines are especially bad because they only have one small window.
Disadvantages
- Only one elevator, and it's slow.
