Although they are called barracks, the cadet dormitories are similar to those at a civilian college. There are generally two or three cadets to a room. Cadets live with other members of their class within their cadet company. (A company consists of about 110 cadets of all four classes.) Women room together within their assigned companies. Each cadet's desk is equipped with a private telephone line and a fiber optic telephone connection allowing unlimited access to the Internet.
