Students are encouraged to move in to such area, if they do not have a place stay. The dormroom-like atmosphere is great for getting to know your classmates better. Both Mages and Non-Mages can room here as well. Did I mention that it is co-ed? Anyways, unlike the Mages grounds, the barracks lack a magic forcefield. This unfortunately leaves the barracks wide open for deviants to pass in and out.
