Dorms

<p>Would someone be so kind as to recommend a dorm for me next year? I'm going to be an out of state freshman.</p>

<p>Preferably I would like:
-Air conditioning (wall units are fine)
-Suite style
-Don't mind if it's in South Campus but I would prefer to be closer to classes (maybe something in the north of South Campus)
-Nothing too "rowdy" in terms of party life, but definitely an option</p>

<p>I know there is no perfect residence hall and I could just look up the chart on the website, but I would also like to receive insight into the various social atmospheres. Thanks so much!</p>

<p>Morrison is your best bet.</p>

<p>Yeah Morrison is your best bet, if you can get into morrison. Keep in mind that all seniors, juniors, and sophomores are assigned housing first.</p>

<p>seniors probably will not choose morrison, and a few juniors are there. it's mostly sophomores, but surprisingly a lot of freshmen this year.</p>

<p>I live in Carmichael this year and I would recommend it. The rooms are a little smaller, but it is only a short walk to classes.</p>

<p>yea carmichael is a good choice too, but i personally would go with morrison bc its convenient to ram's head rec/cafeteria/market, dean dome. kenan stadium, and about 7-12 minutes to class</p>

<p>morrison, carmichael, teague/parker/avery (morrison's technically on south campus, but the rest are on middle campus)</p>

<p>but seriously, living in the big south campus dorms like ehringhaus, HJ and craige is really NOT THAT BAD. i absolutely loved ehaus--it's a 10-minute walk to class as opposed to 5, but it's very social and provides the ultimate first-year experience. i'm still best friends with all my suitemates from last year.</p>

<p>I am almost positive that Ehaus and Craige are the only two dorms that lack air conditioning in every room at this point, so I would avoid requesting those two communities. Hinton James, where I live, is the absolute farthest dorm from campus, but it's not bad by any means. The walk is really good for you!</p>

<p>i would recommend against craige....Hinton James (hojo) or Ehringhaus (e-haus) are both good choices...but I don't think e-haus has a/c in all rooms yet.</p>
