Named in honor of the former Champlain (Dickinson) and Chenango (Newing) halls, the Chenango Champlain Collegiate Center (C4) is shared by both the Newing and Dickinson communities. Each side of the complex is themed to the community it faces. The Dickinson side has a blue color scheme and a fireplace lounge, while the Newing side has a red color scheme and features a large table made from trees taken down as part of the new building. Both lounges have skylights to provide ample natural lighting. They provide space for residents of the two communities to interact in a comfortable, home-away-from-home environment.
