  List of MIT dormitories - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The dormitories at MIT are famous in their own right.
MIT campus "hackers," when giving entering students unusual tours of the campus (often by means of less accessible paths), often instruct their "tourists"--if caught--to tell campus security that they were "just on their way to Baker House," or "trying to find Baker," while the hackers themselves hide.
Bexley was among the first MIT dormitories to be coed, despite the best efforts of the administration, and the only dormitory to have its House cat serve as dorm chairman (all the more remarkable in that cats were not then allowed in MIT dormitories).

 The Tech - E-Mail Lists: Banes and Gains
Mailing lists can be an integral part of communication and a major force in disseminating information, but their abuse creates hordes of annoyed, irate students.
A major bane of many students is internal spam — dormitory lists appear to be most heavily infected, with requests for everything from French horns and T-shirts to hammers and course books.
Dormitories, living groups, and clubs typically have mailing lists created specifically for event notification, and students should take care before sending an e-mail to such a large number of people.
