<p>Thinking of this housing application and wondering the pros and cons of the coed floors in the commons. Are there any draw backs to going with the co-ed? Are the rooms, layout, bathroom (obviously not co-ed) identical? Any feedback on what your freshman year was like on, or not on, a co-ed floor?</p>
<p>Thanks again.</p>
<p>You can’t pick your residence hall in the commons.</p>
<p>You may not be able to pick your building or floor, but the questionnaire asks if you would be willing to live on a coed floor. ldklol may be asking for information to assist him/her in answering that question.</p>
<p>As far as I know, there aren’t any co-ed floors on commons. Must be on there in case of overflow issues or something. There are only like 6 floors capable of being co-ed (individual bathrooms) and like I said, I don’t think they’re co-ed. I wouldn’t think into it too much.</p>
<p>If those floors were converted to co-ed for some reason, they bring the advantage of having individual bathrooms. That’s about it. Individual bathrooms may sound special but they really aren’t that great at all. I can’t remember about the size of these rooms.</p>

My understanding was that the plan for the commons was single sex floors. I figured they asked that question in case they had to create a coed floor due to the distribution of men and women in the freshman class.</p>
<p>Coed floors must be a new thing this year. All Commons houses were single-sex when I was a freshman (2010).</p>
<p>I really don’t think there will be co-ed floors. That question is always on the questionnaire as I recall and there have never been any.</p>
