LSU Housing: Are the Residential Colleges Worth it?

I am an incoming bio major at LSU, and this means that the residential option for me is highland hall. I haven’t toured it, but I have seen Cypress Hall and am in love with it (even though the location is less ideal than highland). Is staying in your major’s residential hall actually worth it, or is it more important to choose a hall that you are comfortable in? I would love advice from people who have stayed from any dorm at LSU:)

Ask in the LSU forum: http://talk.qa.collegeconfidential.com/louisiana-state-university/

I would think that being with people in your major would be quite helpful when forming study groups.
