<p>How is the roommate matching system at rutgers? Would it be better to go in blind or find someone on facebook?</p>
<p>I’ll give you my point of view: my son filled out the form they use to match you up with your roommate. His roommate turned out to be the complete opposite of him. Different hours, different interests, completely different. At least on FB you have a fighting chance at compatibility.</p>
<p>My born-again-christian catholic niece with asperger’s was paired with a int’l student from palestine. I think housing might be thinking it was a way to increase diversity. It nearly caused a nervous breakdown.</p>
