<p>sometimes privacy is nice....and from what I hear, the Balch singles are awesome</p>
<p>I guess some people don't want to take the risk with getting a nightmare roommate also?</p>
<p>The same thing happened to me, Myarmin. I had a 6:40 am time slot and couldn't get anything but a double in Founders Hall (Gothics)..has anyone lived there? Please tell me it's not that bad...</p>
<p>Wow, even at 6:40 you had trouble? Especially having been spoiled by a Court-Kay-Bauer single, I'm not sure how I'm going to adjust. Oh well, I guess sometimes things just don't go your way. I'm just worried that the Gothics are going to smell bad, especially with the poor ventilation and the public bathrooms. I have breathing problems at home but I haven't had any in my room here. I was also looking forward to living with new clean walls and furniture and everything, but oh well... I hope it's not too dirty or anything.</p>
<p>My friend lived in a double in North Baker (a gothic) the room was huge...but they had one closet. It wasn't bad...but it wasn't that great either</p>
<p>sigh - I lived in No. Baker - 35 years ago...I loved it...I think it was Room 221 - we painted our door numbers because one girl on our hall was an artist and started it...and wrote our initials in the leaded window - as had students in the 1800's - it was pretty cool - BUT - I did not grow up in a modern house with all the amenities (I grew up in NY)</p>
<p>hah...yeah...I'm originally from Upstate NY...and my house is old...so when my friends complain about their "horrible" apartment...I don't always understand what's wrong :-D</p>
<p>does anyone know when sophomores can move in in August?</p>
<p>anytime after freshman move in day....</p>
<p>what date would that be oO</p>
<p>freshmen move-in day this year is August 22nd</p>
<p>rytheguy--the doubles are like...one bedroom, then a door, and then another bedroom. some of them are just two separate bedrooms attached, and have separate doors leading into them. </p>
<p>I went to look at the house, however, and its quite small....</p>
<p>
I live in Founders Hall right now actually. If you have questions, you can PM me.</p>
<p>If the Freshman move-in is in August, is it a big problem that I wrote in my finaid application that I "plan to begin my study at this university in September" ?</p>
<p>i don't think that that is a big deal</p>
