I’m a parent of a soon-to-be-sophomore. All I have is word of mouth.
The location is a mixed bag. You will have to walk to the South dining hall, but OTOH, you’re right across the street from the IM building and I count that as a plus. I’ve also heard some not so nice things about the bathrooms, no A/C, no elevators, and if you’re an engineering student, getting to North Campus will take a bit longer than say the West/East/South quads. Getting to the Big House, Crisler and Yost is quick and easy.
I think the “community” of Fletcher will change each year and will depend pretty much on the kids you’re placed with there.
I just don’t know if you’ll get anyone to switch you, other than North Campus students. And I’d probably stay where you are in Fletcher, than switch to Bursley or Baits.
