President Daniel Papp's 5th Floor

★★★★★

Finally we have made it. This may very well be our last post, none the less it is the pinnacle of our blog. We have built up long enough and finally have a bathroom that is worth your time to read about. You may have noticed that the stars above are gold, and they are for good reason. 

When Joel and I started the blog, we joked that it would be great if we could visit the fifth floor of Kennesaw Hall to see the bathrooms. So on a whim Plunkett emailed Papp's assistant with a request. Much to our surprise we actually received a reply. After a few emails back and forth, April 21st we were given permission to make a visit to the fifth floor of Kennesaw Hall and review the coveted bathrooms.    

The Bathrooms were great, what else would you expect? The bathroom tiles were so clean you could eat off them. This is the only bathroom on campus that received a perfect score across the board according to our metrics. It was clean, had a great atmosphere, privacy was perfect, and traffic was homely, 5 out of 5 in all categories. the fifth floor of Kennesaw Hall has everything you could want in a bathroom. 

After you could take a walk onto the balcony and look down on all of campus. 

Pro-tips: If you ever get the chance to make the visit, don't miss it. Everything on the fifth floor is seriously high class, from the wood panels, to the bathroom, just make sure you are not underdressed as no one else on the floor will be. 

Wilson Annex

★★★★★

Wowzers... thats not a word, and we should not pretend that it is, also its awful. But good golly gee is this building nice. When Joel and I started this blog, this is exactly the gem we were hoping to stumble upon. The Wilson Annex is used for... Well I'm not really sure, they have a theater and I am not sure what else goes on in there.
The bathrooms in this building are great, really everything you could hope for. Only two bathrooms one per floor. We ranked the building with a perfect score on all of our metrics except for traffic which we put an asterisk next to because of possible theater traffic. aside from the unusual traffic the Wilson Annex scores perfect in cleanliness, privacy, and atmosphere. This is really the perfect building for our blog, and even includes all the automatic amenities short of the blades (featured in Priliman).

Pro-tip: This is utopia, if you want some alone time there is even a personal stall on the second floor. The best part of this building is no one really knows about it.

Wilson Building (Stillwell Theater)

★★★☆☆

Wilson Building (aka Stillwell Theater)

Kennesaw State is home to some really cool buildings, and unfortunately a few that are not so cool. The Stillwell Theater is a great example of the not so cool buildings offered by the college. While the Wilson building surely had its glory days, and cool parts like the black box theater and the small museum housed within, the building now seems old and musty. If you like comparisons, the building has a very similar feel to the old section of the English building, if not a little nicer.

Alas the bathrooms in the Wilson building are not much to boast. The large building has only two bathrooms throughout, and with classes a theater, and museum not nearly enough for my taste. On other metrics of our rating scale the building rated not poorly and not well, but simply average. We gave it a 3 out of 5 for both Cleanliness and Traffic, because while at times there could be many people in the building and consequently more people in the facilities, the building has relatively low traffic (or at least average), despite the small number of bathrooms. The Atmosphere did not fair as well in the rankings, scoring 2 of a possible 5. This is because of the state of the buildings age, it has not been left to disrepair but the age is visible throughout the building. finally the privacy was sufficient in the building, as the only metric that ranked above 3, with a 4 out of 5.  As for automatic amenities like sinks, toilettes, and hand dryers, don't hold your breath. Finally we would rank the building a 3 of 5 overall, not royal, not horrific, but a solid "okay."

Pro-tips: Usually I wouldn't tease you to read another blog but if you are already here and looking for a good bathroom check out my next post on the Wilson Annex (spoiler, its awesome).
