The Burning Question: How Many Mods Can a BC Eagle Handle?
Ah, the Mods. Every Boston College senior's dream (or nightmare, depending on your lottery luck). These quirky little houses hold a special place in the heart of every Eagle, even if they've never set foot inside one. But before you get swept away in a daydream of backyard barbecues and legendary Mod parties, let's get down to brass tacks: just how many of these bad boys are there?

The Not-So-Secret Number
Alright, alright, I won't keep you in suspense any longer. The magic number is... 76. That's right, 76 glorious Mod apartments, each housing a maximum of six seniors (though some would argue that's pushing it with all the "stuff" that accumulates over four years). So do the math: that means there's only enough space for a measly 438 seniors to live the coveted Mod life.
The Odds of Mod-ness
Tip: Reread slowly for better memory.
Now, here's where things get interesting. Getting a Mod is like winning the housing lottery. It's all about random chance, folks. You and your squad can put together the most epic roommate application ever (complete with a choreographed dance routine, we won't judge), but it all comes down to the whims of fate (or maybe a particularly enthusiastic squirrel picking lottery numbers).
The Mod Mystique
So why all the fuss about these little boxes? Well, for starters, they offer a unique sense of community (think six best friends, or six people who at least tolerate each other's ramen addiction). Plus, there's the independence – a full kitchen, a backyard for grilling, all the makings of your own senior year sanctuary (as long as you don't mind sharing with five other people).
But beware, aspiring Mod-dwellers! Living the Mod life comes with its own set of challenges. Thin walls mean you'll be intimately familiar with your neighbors' sleep schedules (or lack thereof). And don't even get us started on the legendary "Modcrud" that mysteriously appears on every surface, regardless of how diligent you are with cleaning.
