Thirty-five students were randomly selected from 2 "quiet" halls and 35 from 2 conventional halls. Information was obtained on their SCAT scores, GPA, major, division, age, classification, and parental education, and they were administered Pace's College and University Environmental Scale (CUES). Their responses showed perceptions of the college environment along 7 dimensions: practicality, community, scholarship, awareness, propriety, campus morale, and teacher quality and faculty-student relationship. Employing the psychometric process of scoring, the findings showed a marked difference between the residents of quiet and conventional halls. The quiet hall resident was usually an older student, generally an upper classman, who perceives his environment as characterized by intellectuality, scholastic discipline, consideration for others, and propriety.
