<p>Wow, it's been awhile since I posted. :P</p>
<p>Anyway, does anyone have comments on South Hall for first-years?</p>
<p>Crabbymom's daughter lived in South as a freshman and LOVED it! PM her and ask if she doesn't respond to this post.</p>
<p>I lived in South as a freshman and as a sophomore and I loved it too. It's a good location, close to Davis, and pretty social, although it's very easy to get work done - the walls and doors are pretty thick. The rooms are giant shoeboxes (the exact dimensions are on the reslife website). The 4th floor rooms have slanted ceilings, although mine wasn't that bad, only the very end was slanted and it was a tiny bit. There are rooms where an entire wall is slanted though. Let me know if you have more questions.</p>
<p>Colors are a little weird though (walking into candyland - PURPLE and GREEN walls?)</p>
<p>Just the doors are colored, the walls are white.</p>
<p>hey, I'm in South too! What I was worried about is that it's not all-freshman. Will it be less social as a result? I'd imagine that most sophomores wouldn't be as willing to make new friends, since they already went through that last year...</p>
<p>Oh and what's the bathroom situation? it said 4-6 people to one bathroom. Is it difficult to get showers in? Does that mean the bathrooms are coed? Just wondering lol</p>
<p>It's slightly more difficult, but not by much to find social activity in South. The bathrooms - They're lockable (!) and not co-ed. Usually the showers are never taken really, since if one shower's taken up, you can just go down the hall and another one will be free.</p>
<p>The individual lockable bathrooms are the best part about South, not to say the rest of the dorm is bad, but it's just so nice to have those.</p>
<p>Most of the sophomores on my freshman hallway were pretty friendly, and likewise for my sophomore hallway. There are always those upperclassmen who won't get to know the other people, but I think for the most part, people are nice and willing to become friends.</p>
