Cardenal? Faisan? Alondra? SLE? Questions answered here.

<p>If any of you have East Florence Moore or SLE-related questions, feel free to ask on this thread.</p>

<p>I'm in Cardenal:))
I can't think of any questions right now....so, I'll be happy if you can tell me anything about the dorm
and also, is there anyone else in cardenal?:)</p>

<p>Well, Cardenal is a 4-class dorm. There are about 35 freshmen, all of whom are in SLE. And there about 40 upperclassmen, many of them SLE alums. </p>

<p>Cardenal has a small communal kitchen with a stove, fridge, pots, pans, etc., as well as a microwave. This essentially means it's not worth it to bring a microwave. HOWEVER, if you consider what it means to have a communal fridge, it makes sense to bring your own fridge. </p>

<p>In the lounge there's a foosball table. It's a relatively new set from last year, and Cardenal had an ongoing ladder tourney; I was number one a couple of times. Treat the table with reverence. That means no spins. :)</p>

<p>All of the three SLE dorms are connected, and I recommend making an effort to get to know people outside of your dorm. </p>

<p>Well, let me know if you have any questions.</p>

<p>I'm in Cardenal, too. SLE, here I come!</p>

<p>I am in Alondra. I have never visited the dorms at Stanford, so I know nothing about them. What is Alondra like?</p>

<p>I'm in Cardenal too!!! I would have preferred being in the all-frosh SLE dorm, but this way we'll get rides! heh</p>

<p>Is that part of FloMo, but not SLE? Are they all connected?</p>

<p>It's in FloMo, and it's SLE, but it's 4-class. All the freshmen are in SLE, however.</p>

<p>I'm also in Cardenal! Looks like there's a lot of us here. I'm so excited! :)</p>

<p>To clarify, soccerfanatic was talking about Alondra, not Paloma. Paloma is on the west side of FloMo; it is all frosh, but none of them are in SLE. I've only actually been inside FloMo once (and that was the SLE side), so I don't know how the dorms are connected.</p>

<p>Are Cardenal dorms really that small? On the unofficial Stanford website it says they are "mediocre" 1 room doubles.</p>

<p>The rooms are the biggest of all freshman dorms (incl. Stern, Wilbur, FroSoCo, and Lag), so "mediocre" is highly relative.</p>

<p>Really? If Flomo doubles are bigger than Wilbur doubles, that's really saying something.</p>

<p>Alondra is the best freshman dorm on campus. Period. That's all you need to know.</p>

<p>(and Cardenal. eh, you guys are all right :)</p>

<p>yay! I'm in Alondra!! :-D</p>

<p>(how is Alondra the best freshman dorm?)</p>
