SOCIAL: Not good for the "dorm experience." Basically the dorm is an apartment converted to a dorm so each "suite" is just you and six other people rather than an entire hallway. It's very difficult meeting people outside of your suite so the dorm feels pretty antisocial. I really can't understate how quiet and antisocial this dorm is. If you want a quiet place to study then this place is good I guess but if you want friends avoid this place at all costs. ROOM: If you're in the quad you basically have a normal private home bathroom which was the one saving grace this dorm has. The desks and water pressure are bad. LOCATION: The area is pretty close to both campus and IV so that's a plus. It's close to Kappa Sigma and other frat houses ...
