<p>Just saw my housing assignment and this is what I got on the Busch campus. Anyone else on here been assigned to Davidson and can any upperclassmen shed some light on how these dorms are? I heard they are far from pleasing.</p>
<p>You can see what your room looks like here: [Rutgers</a> University Housing Residence Life](<a href=“http://housing.rutgers.edu/ie/index.php?page=content/Common/Halls/Busch/Davidson.php]Rutgers”>http://housing.rutgers.edu/ie/index.php?page=content/Common/Halls/Busch/Davidson.php)</p>
<p>They’re not bad at all. I think the main reason why people don’t like them is because they don’t have AC…so just get a fan.</p>
<p>my friend lived in davidson frosh year, in the all-guys wing. do you know which wing you are? because there is an all-girls wing, co-ed wing, and all-guys. he found the all-guys wing not all too great, and it just didn’t seem very social. i was in there a lot, and everyone always had their doors closed but still tv/music blasting. it seemed like these were just social people who didn’t feel like socializing with the dudes they lived with. but then he met some people way on the other side of the wing, and made friends with them. and the girls wing had way too much drama going on in there (had friends in there as well) but i know someone who lived in co-ed wing, and really liked it. he’s also a very social person, so i bet he would have liked it anywhere. it’s not too bad, but not like the greatest thing ever. </p>
<p>it used to be army barracks. the bathrooms are nice and new. rooms are a bit small. lounge is nice. invest in a fan. you’ll be fine! seriously! and there’s a bus stop right outside and a parking lot! so when your getting picked up/dropped off, it’s pretty convenient. and it’s like a five minute walk away from the dining hall/campus center, and you can even take the bus there if you don’t feel like walking. </p>
<p>there’s always something to say about every rh. like mine is haunted, for instance.</p>
<p>Thanks for the feedback guys. Anyone else?</p>
<p>ok look I lived in Davidson A(all guys one) last school year and it really wasn’t that bad. Ill give u the best break down that I can. Davidson A is all guys, B and C are coed, and D is all guys. Basically the first 2 weeks ur gonna bi.tch about how theres no girls and no AC b/c of how hot it is. After those first couple of weeks ull start to get used to things, and make friends in ur dorm very easily because of the small size of the building that actually promotes closeness. Ur building will be full of all different types of guys dorks, normal ppl, punk.s and what not. Best attitude tho is to be cool with everyone, that got me far and i basically made friends with everyone there on both sides of the building. Living in an all guys building does have its advantages b/c ppl get ridiculously competitive with **** like Ping Pong(which i didn’t even kno how to play at the beginning of the year and became mad good at it by the end), Halo and Pool.</p>
<p>I dont know who Naiose was friends with in Davidson A, but it was prolly her friends own fault for not being friends with people in the building. If you stay social and not weird, ull actually have very legit friends by the end of the year. Not soundin gay but i kno i wont forget the times i had in Davidson A just chillin in the lounge with my freshmen year friends. And I also dont kno what Naiose was talkin about with the closed doors, if u were friends with people there u can go to their rooms whenever u wanted and just chill whenever. The doors were prolly closed in Davidson b/c people in our building chose to chill in the lounge or everyone would go to one persons room if they wanted to. People just didnt’ hang out in the halls as much as the lounge or the rooms thats all it is.</p>
<p>As for ur setting Davidson A has a small parking lot right in front of it with a bus stop at the end of it which makes it so convenient to get to places. When RU gets cold which it does for a very long time in the school year it makes being in Davidson a gift b/c u can just NextBus when the next bus will come to ur building to take u to the dining hall, and u can even take a bus back from there to Davidson. Also all around the Davidson buildings there are big fields so u can play football and shyt whenever.</p>
<p>So Bottom line is Davidson is not bad, and actually pretty fun as time goes on. Just dont become one of those Davidson outcasts by being either too weird and creepin other dudes out, or dont become an outcast by not talking to anyone ever until its too late to make friends b/c if u do ull be miserable the whole year. Also be a man and suck up that no AC shyt. Remember shyts only as bad as u make it out to be, think of the positives instead of the negatives</p>
<p>all i can say is that everyone has different experiences. i’m glad that you had a good time, and eventually so did my friend, but it just took a little while to get there. and please don’t insinuate that my friend is this massive antisocial creeper, that’s kinda offfensive. he just didn’t click with some of the people who lived around him, that’s all. and he ended up enjoying it as well in the end. </p>
<p>oh, and welcome to cc!</p>
