Though housing might not be as great as it is for upperclassmen, freshmen at Harvard are pretty lucky. From the view of Harvard Yard to the classy brick walls to the tradition of famous people who inhabited the dorms, it’s safe to say we have some pretty good dorms. But even so, it’s up to the dorm residents to transform their dorm room into a living space. These 12 freshmen dorm rooms are some that have been best transformed from just another Harvard dorm room into an impressive living space.
