Norris is a first-year only dorm, so you should expect to hear a lot of noise (and other crazy stuff), but also to make a lot of friends. When I lived there 3 years ago, the building was very unpleasant, with small hallways and gross bathrooms. Now with the renovations, I assume at least the bathrooms are better, and the other amenities are nicer (elevator, laundry room, nice lounge space). One things that will never change is the location: Norris is located on the far north corner of campus. Except if you are an athlete, expect walking a lot for classes and other on-campus activities (specially the arts building, which is a 10-minute walk away.
