JM: What do you remember being the nicest and worst parts about the different blocks?
Susan: In minimum security it can be tough to find a minute to yourself. The best part about minimum is that the windows can be opened and shut. It seems like such a trivial thing but they do not open in the medium building. The rooms are pretty big too with three windows in each room.
