Students seem to love it. It's a shame that this sole piece of actual data is buried so far down underneath piles of speculative naysaying.

Seems like they love it for the location, convenience and price. Not for the lack of windows. Granted, no windows are cheaper but still...

I don't think anybody is saying that the lack of windows is itself a good thing, even the "forced socializing" line of reasoning clearly uses the lack of windows as a stick to get people out of their rooms. It's just an acceptable tradeoff for a sizable subset of students.
