My daughter's new dorm will be Legett, named after Judge K.K. Legett, from Abilene, Texas and the dorm was constructed in 1911. It was originally a men's dorm but now is an all female dorm with 160 girls in attendance during the fall and spring school year.

The TAMU housing website gives a little information but not all the rooms are the same and we had some additional questions the website did not list. We were able to get additional information about the dorm directly from an email received from the Associate Director of Housing.
Do you have pictures of room 220?
Pictures of the hall can be found here: http://campustours.tamu.edu/locations/0419
What are the sizes of the two windows? there are 2 windows
each 72’ x 72” each
Do they need mini blinds or curtains? Mini-blinds are standard for each window
Will they need curtain rods and if so, what length? Yes, but a spring rod that is at least 72”
What is the length and width size of the room? 14’x16’ This is a corner room….so a little
bit larger than the non-corner rooms
What is the closet size? 2
closets each: 54.5” x 12” x 21”
What does the sink/vanity look like? (free standing sink or
is there a cabinet?). I need to double check
but these were standing sink (no cabinets)
What is the width size of the desk?
Desk Size and all other furniture size can be found here: http://reslife.tamu.edu/sites/reslife.tamu.edu/files/download/reshalls/specs/legett.pdf
What if they want do not want to keep certain furniture in
the room? Does someone remove it and store it or is that our responsibility? No, all furniture must stay in the room
Will there be someone available to raise/lower the tall loft
beds on move in day? Hall staff is available to
assist, but the residents can do tis fairly easily
What is in the kitchen? (toaster/microwave/fridge/freezer,
etc.) Basic community kitchen with microwave,
fridge/freezer, and stove. No toaster or toaster ovens
Ice maker? Yes
Can they store food in the fridge? Not
really as this kitchen is fairly small and not designed for 160 students to
store their food in it
Do they need to contribute anything (towels, utensils, pots,
etc?) We would suggest bringing your own
There no pictures that I found, or have been sent to me, regarding the corner rooms. I will try to take pictures so future students will have an idea what the room is like before the girls start moving in. I guess the housing department doesn't understand that girls want to "arrange" the room before getting there and to buy necessary items like curtains and rugs. Not having these dimensions makes it hard to shop!
Here is the link to the dimensions of the regular rooms. Some of the information crosses over to the corner rooms. https://reslife.tamu.edu/sites/reslife.tamu.edu/files/download/reshalls/specs/legett.pdf
And here is the link to a regular room diagram. https://reslife.tamu.edu/sites/reslife.tamu.edu/files/download/reshalls/floorplans/corridorTallLoftLegett.pdf
The tall loft beds cannot be removed height wise. If you lower your bed, you will still have a high headboard and footboard. This really changes how your room will look.
I hope this answers some of your questions about Legett. Go Aggies!
