<p>I read in the student handbook, on Princeton's website, a reference to showers being located in the basement of a dorm. Does anyone know if this a common set-up in first-year dorms (other than Forbes, where it's not)?</p>
<p>Basement showers don't exist in Wilson, Butler or Forbes. The only place I could envision a basement shower is in an unrenovated Mathey or Rocky dorm. I haven't really heard any complaints about that so I doubt they are very common.</p>
<p>Thanks for the information.</p>
<p>When I was at the April Hosting, some of the prefrosh staying in Butler said something about Showers in the basement. That's what they told me.</p>
<p>the building I stayed in at Wilson, and the building my friend stayed at in Rocky, didnt have basement showers...</p>
<p>1915, a building in Butler, has showers in the basement. There are only two floors though, so its not that bad</p>
<p>I'm going to Princeton and all I wish for is that I'm not placed in Butler...is that so much to ask?</p>
<p>You could end up in the Butler part of Walker, which wouldn't be so bad. Really, Butler's not all that bad...though the brick walls and waffle ceilings are a bit...off-putting, hehe.</p>
<p>Bathrooms/showers in the basement would take some adjusting to, me thinks.</p>
<p>and butler has bloomberg, formerly known as ellipse.... oh so pretty (brand new, with lots of common rooms, ac, beautiful! views of the field, and... what should be senior housing)</p>
<p>"Bathrooms/showers in the basement would take some adjusting to, me thinks"</p>
<p>that was one of my concerns when I visited the campus</p>
<p>I would hate to have to walk up and down floors to take a leak in the middle of the night. Luckily for me, my bathrooms will be located in the halls.</p>
<p>(how do you know where you'll be, semp?)</p>
<p>'cause he's going to Dookie. Or Duke. Whichever you prefer, haha. Deep, deep down though, he's still got a little Princetonian left in him, so he sticks around :p</p>
<p>oh I see! I thought housing was out already.</p>
<p>Duke's great, semp - every single alumni from my hs who's gone is really loving it.</p>
<p>actually, technically I'll be a Blue Devil</p>
<p>ironically this meshes with my politics</p>
<p>social conservatives will call me a blue(liberal democrat) devil</p>
<p>lol, yes</p>
<p>Woody Woo here I come(hopefully)</p>
<p>oh and I'll always have a little "tiger" within this blue devil. </p>
<p>but, we can beat you in b-ball and day!</p>
