“
I am a sophomore at Calvin but this was my first year staying Noordewier- VanderWerp Hall and I would definitely recommend this hall to upcoming students. They have policies set in place where past certain hours the halls must be quiet which was nice for me because it allowed me to study and go to bed at reasonable times. With COVID-19 I think some things could have been different, for example, I felt confined to my room almost all the time. I realize that this is for the best in order to not spread germs but I also found it hard to focus on my learning because I was in the same place all the time. I like to change my surroundings it helps me mentally. Other than that I have no problems staying in Noordewier- VanderWerp because they really do a great job at including everyone in all the activities they do.
