My daughter received word today that she could make her choices for her dorms on her portal, but we aren’t sure what to choose? She is not a partier at all, so I’m quite sure East Dorms won’t be appropriate. We were looking at the Pollack, SLO at Beaver Hall for leadership/service. Does anyone have any insight into this dorm? Also, what would be a good second choice? Any and all information is very welcome!
I am currently a freshman at Penn State, living in Beaver Hall in Pollock on the L/S SLO floor. Pollock is a great choice since you’re so close to classes, the HUB, Redifer Commons, Downtown, etc. It’s quieter than East but there are still plenty of Freshmen here as well. That SLO this year is very small. I believe that there may be 2-3 people on our floor in a floor of 70 people. I can’t speak to what they do necessarily but I would just request Pollock in general. There is no shortage of ways to meet people here and she shouldn’t be worried about that by any means.
