<p>You can request to change colleges after your assignment, but almost no one does it. It’s shameful. Unless you have a good reason, like if your sibling is there.</p>
<p>“Better” can’t be quantified, but here are some hard facts:
-Lovett dorms are terrible. There’s a reason Lovett doesn’t experience the same housing shortage as colleges like Baker and Will Rice.
-Will Rice is the most competitive. They drill competition into you so that you’ll succeed at Beer Bike.
-Baker is fairly competitive.
-Sid Rich traditionally breaks the rules during Beer Bike each year and gets disqualified from the competition. So if you actually like competitive biking…and winning at it…
-Sid Rich serves the worst food. Almost no one will contend this.
-The North servery serves the best food and is consistent in doing so. This may or may not change this fall with the new serveries at the new north colleges.
-Hanszen is the college nearest to the main quad.
-The new north colleges will be the nearest to the engineering quad.
-The above colleges are roughly tied in proximity to the biosciences and chemistry buildings.
-Generally, the newer the college, the better the dorms. Martel currently has the best dorms, though the new colleges this fall may have better.</p>
