And how will kids be supported on such a campus? Among the ones I have seen, there were hardly any amenities (daycares, playgrounds, preschools and schools) for kids. Also, loud parties every weekend.



Well, all campuses are different. But see my reply to the other person who asked about that. We do have playgrounds, and a daycare for all, and 500 acres of athletic fields for football, soccer, cross country, lacrosse, baseball, etc. There's a community garden as well that kids get involved with to learn about gardening.

As for schools, there is an elementary, middle, and high school within a 3 block radius of the campus. Obviously these are funded by the city, but a lot of that funding of course comes from the school and employees through their taxes, so it's a symbiotic relationship. Many faculty here make it their mission to outreach to these local schools. We have events for children all summer long where they engage in physics, chemistry, computer science / robotics, environmental engineering, art, and music projects etc.

Loud parties are annoying but are only held off campus. There are noise ordinances on campus.
