From 1988 - 1991, TAMS students shared the building with regular UNT students before the program grew large enough to occupy the entire building. On the 3rd floor at the top of the stairs one can see a windowed corner office which was the "TAMS front desk" for the first two years of TAMS. McConnell Hall, originally built in 1961 as an all-female dormitory, consists of four wings (the hall originally had three before a major expansion in 1990) and three floors, segregated by gender and grade level. The hall is furnished with a [[kitchenette]], multiple meeting rooms, laundry rooms, bathrooms and two common rooms. One of the common rooms, the [[Smitty Study]], serves as a public recreation room when it is not functioning as a study area during quiet hours. The other common room, [[Mac Cafe|Mac Café]], aptly named because it once was home to a university cafeteria, hosts various [[Events|student activities]] and serves as a gathering place for both academic and social interaction. |
Students reside in pairs in any one of the hall's 374 dual-occupancy dormitories, each of which includes two beds, dressers and drawers, desks, a sink, internet access and electrical sockets; some rooms contain a [[Private Room|private toilet and shower]], while others [[Suite Room|share a bathroom with adjacent rooms]]. [[Community Room|Community bathrooms]] are available for the remaining rooms. Because all TAMS students live in the same building and in close proximity, TAMS tends to be a very close-knit community. While students can, for the most part, schedule their own day however they wish, all students have a [[curfew]] and must remain inside the hall from 11 p.m. (1.00 a.m. on Friday and Saturday nights) to 6 a.m. without special permission. However, students may submit requests to be absent overnight or past curfew if they wish to do so. | Students reside in pairs in any one of the hall's 374 dual-occupancy dormitories, each of which includes two beds, dressers and drawers, desks, a sink, internet access and electrical sockets; some rooms contain a [[Private Room|private toilet and shower]], while others [[Suite Room|share a bathroom with adjacent rooms]].
