This open space, combined with the fact that nearly all Olin College students live on campus, fosters a sense of community between students and faculty. Across the rest of campus, from the robotics labs to the design studios, great care has been taken to emphasize the same communal spirit. During outdoor activities and breaks between lab sessions, iD Tech students can take in all this inspiring setting has to offer.
