Freshman Housing Lottery

<p>The housing lottery is around the corner. Can anyone give some insight on the "good and the bad" of the houses? Maybe a list from "best to worse" with examples of why. And does the number in a blocking group have any effect on which house a group is likely to be assigned? For instance will a group of 4 or 5 most likely get put in a certain house as opposed to a group of 8, or is it totally random as it's claimed to be?</p>

<p>Everyone states that their house is the best which is a good thing, however let's hear from students (and parents out there) their thoughts?</p>
