<p>I am a high school senior looking for a dorm at UW. I will be an engineering student, and I would classify myself as a nerd (i like sci-fi/fantasy, video games, RPG's, etc) What dorm would you recommend for me? Or if there isn't any particular dorm that attracts the nerdy students, what dorm would you recommend overall?</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
<p>Might look at Chadbourne first.</p>
<p>Lakeshore for sure</p>
<p>Ya I would recommend the learning communities at Chadbourne first off. Perhaps the substance free floor? Not sure what your thoughts are on that. Secondly I would put all the Lakeshore dorms and last Southeast. It’s generally quieter/less rowdy/stereotypically nerdy in Lakeshore which seems like it would be more of your comfort zone.</p>
<p>Read the recent dorm threads. You will find nerds all over campus.</p>
<p>how many all-freshman dorms are there/what are they?</p>
<p>^i’m pretty sure there is only one all-freshman dorm at Madison and that’s Bradley; although, i’m not 100% sure.</p>
