<p>I'm going to be a freshman in the fall. I'm planning to live on Campus. I'm looking for a building thats fairly quiet during the week and has activity on the weekend. Anyone have any suggestions??</p>
<p>I am also in this situation- All I heard is to stay away from Sylvan!</p>
<p>Are the new suites open to freshmen? Hmmm I wonder.</p>
<p>i dunno. i heard orchird hill can be quiet.</p>
<p>i'm definatly requesting southwest. are you gonna do that epoch thing or special interest living ?</p>
<p>No I don't think I am. Are you?</p>
<p>i dunno. my mom said theyre good to meet people but im not sure if i want to do one.</p>
<p>Southwest does sound best. I hope they hurry up and receive my check so I can sign up for orientation!</p>
<p>i know i will be living in southwest cuz im doin biotap</p>
<p>when do you sign up for housing? on the orientation weekend? do u always get ur first choice?</p>
<p>^ same question! I have not requested for housing yet. I'm wondering how are the toilets like..how are they shared..particularly the northeast area?</p>
<p>^bathroom....i meant</p>
<p>What orientation is everyone thinking? I'm pretty sure on June 25-27</p>
<p>im thinking july 9th-11th bc i have grad parties all through the end of june... still no answer about how you get assigned houesing?? (i sent my check today!!!)</p>
<p>I will be a sophmore in engineering in 2006/2007.
I spent my first year in the Southwest area. I was in an Epoch dorm.
The dorm had a friendly atmosphere. Everyone were freshman, so we were all on the same page moving in. Every weekend (starting on thursday) parties would begin. The southwest epoch freshman party hard, a lot.
The epoch dorms never got as quiet as I'd like for studying, but i was still able to get my work done between the libraries and the lounges.
The bottom line is that these dorms party a lot. If your into that, then great!</p>
