Jesus FUCK that's a horrible idea. My neighbor is a maintenance guy for a sober living complex and he has talked to me about maintaining these kinds of high density environments, and this seems like a nightmare scenario just waiting to happen. Also, just emotionally, this can't possibly work. There's no way to succeed in such a high pressure environment like those college years with so little space and so little priv…
So little privacy? The first three of my four years in college I had shared rooms; only had a single my senior year. I think that's reasonably common? This is much more privacy than that. (Lack of windows is much more of an issue from my perspective)
I lived in a four-bedroom apartment with individual bedrooms (and three common rooms) my first two years and a rented house with a couple of housemates my last two. From the rendering shown, these kids will have less space by something like a factor of ten. The amount of living space per student proposed here is by no means common and really does look like a prison block.
