100% agree. That’s simply unsafe and unhealthy and IMO if it’s that bad the health department should be involved.
Not the same thing as paying - or not paying in a lottery/seniority system - for the dorm with large suites, the one closer to the dining hall, the one with the high ceilings or whatever. If the housing system is fair (IMO seniority/lottery is fair in most of its forms), then everyone accepts that sometimes you win and sometimes you lose and it all works out and that’s just college life.
