International Cooperative House (ICH)

International Co-op House (ICH) has been around for over 35 years. Our premise is that through cooperation a large group of people can live together in pleasant surroundings, with the freedom to determine their own affairs. We endeavor to create a comfortable atmosphere where people feel free to share themselves socially. We are culturally and politically diverse, including both Americans and international persons, and we make our own decisions by majority vote on policy and by consensus vote on membership. Our meal plan includes healthy vegetarian meals and occasional meat dishes. Free laundry facilities, phone, high-speed internet, some parking, and indoor bike storage are available. Our co-op is located two blocks from campus and State Street. Contract Terms: We are able to offer early contract release to those who are required to leave Madison. Located two blocks from campus and State Street, our house has existed for many years. Although we speak many different languages, we are a close group of friends. Our premise is that through cooperation a large group of people can live together in pleasant surroundings with freedom to determine their own affairs.
