"Gilbert Dormitory is a quality dorm for freshmen looking for a place with close proximity to the academic quad and dining halls. It is not the most modern dorm but it makes up for this with the number of laundry machines. Overall it is a nice dorm with everything you need as freshman." - 3 years ago

"What Hoeing and most of the quad dorms lack in amenities they make up in social life. Alot of people in these dorms know one another and talk regularly compared to Sue B and Genessee. There will almost always be something happening in the common area so it will be alot easier to talk and meet new people. The biggest drawback here was that the dorms were pretty bad and the lighting was dim at best. If your living here definitely invest in some lights." - 4 years ago

"Tiernan is a great dorm for first-years! It is close to most dining options (Douglass and The Pit) as well as the academic quad. Socially speaking, it is also close to the off-campus bridge and fraternity quad (which may be loud some nights). There are also big common rooms on each floor which make it easy for meeting new people and making friends. While the furniture's a little outdated, my room (double) was spacious but would be cramped for triples. There was also only one window in my room and my roommate was on the side of it, so it was pretty dark on my side. The bathrooms are standard and usually pretty clean. Also, it's much better to be on a higher floor to avoid any cockroaches or mice.

"I lived in a double on the third floor my freshman year. Susan B. Anthony is really nice because Danforth Dining Hall and the Hillside convenience store are located on the first floor. The restrooms were regularly maintained so the toilets, showers, and sinks were pretty clean.

The dorm itself is not super nice or anything like that but it's also not bad. It was spacious enough, with a closet, drawer, desk, and shelf for each inhabitant of the room. There are two common spaces and also a kitchen on every floor. " - 10 months ago

"It’s the newest residence hall on campus. Close to campus center and both dining halls. It has a nice view of the sports field and great study areas. The bathrooms are very private and the best you can get as a freshman. Best dorm on campus 100%." - 1 year ago
