I heard that Beckman’s in a better location but I want to be in a dorm that’s social as well, and I haven’t heard much about the social part in Buckman but have heard that Jennings is a good social dorm. Is Jennings a bad location though? I’m entering as a freshman. Let me know what you think!
You may not be able to get a slot in the Murphree area (which includes Buckman Hall), as it’s popular with 2nd year students. That’s also the reason you likely don’t want to choose it, since Freshman are much more social.
Jennings or Broward should be fine, both are extremely social.
You could also look at the Tolbert Area(East, North, Riker, Tolbert, and Weaver Hall). Avoid Beaty Towers as the apartment style rooms make it harder to meet new folks.
What about the dorms in the Yulee area? Yulee Reid Mallory Cypress? Are those freshman dorms? Are they social?
Cypress may be hard for a Freshman to get into, and it’s a suite style dorm, so not as social.
Yulee/Mallary/Reid are typical freshman dorms and will be social. Yulee has the “Global Living Learning Community”, while Reid has the “Fine Arts Living Learning Community”.
