Ezra Stiles College is a residential college at Yale University, built in 1961 by Eero Saarinen. Architecturally, it is known for its lack of right angles. It is adjacent to Morse College. Unlike most of the other residential colleges, which are currently being, or have recently been, renovated, Stiles is being excluded from this project. This is especially noteworthy since Stiles' facilities (along with Morse's) are significantly less extensive and less lavish than the other residential colleges. While officially it is stated that student placement in residential colleges is a random process, it is generally agreed that Stiles has a large proportion of athletes and science majors.

It is a popular myth that the building was meant to be covered in ivy but due to the type of concrete used, the ivy never grew. Students often complain that the lack of ivy has made Stiles (and neighboring Morse) more ugly than they were originally intended to be, but contrary to popular belief, there was never meant to be any ivy.

Additionally, because none of the interior walls make right angles, specialized beds and desks were apparently designed by the architect that would fit each room. These useful furnishings were expensive, however, so Yale went with ill-fitting standard furniture instead.
