Oxford?

<p>Is Oxford a good dorm? What is it like?</p>

<p>what i’ve gathered so far:</p>

<ul>
<li>it’s “far” from other dorms on central campus (but about a 10-15 min walk to the diag which is about the same as the dorms on the hill and way better than the 5-10 minute bus ride from north)</li>
<li>has it’s own bus stop right in front of the dorm for late nights or if you just choose to take the bus</li>
<li>it’s “small” in comparison to other dorms (325ish people as opposed to 1000+ but the rooms for quads are supposedly pretty big)</li>
<li>it’s near some frats & sororities so it’s not a big deal to walk to a party and then just walk home</li>
<li>location wise it’s pretty low-key so it’s easier to get away with more </li>
<li>8 houses ranging from 25-75 people </li>
<li>food situation isn’t ideal. there’s not like a real cafeteria but a “cafe” but you can always eat elsewhere</li>
<li>3/4 of a mile from the hill dorms & Mojo food</li>
<li>right by the arboretum so there’s a beautiful park/nature area in your backyard</li>
<li>has a mini-gym</li>
<li>some quads and triples have their own kitchens/bathrooms</li>
<li>idk if there’s a library/study area nearby</li>
<li>has basketball courts & a bbq grill area</li>
<li>supposedly there’s a really nice sense of community among the people in oxford because everyone’s kind of isolated from everyone else & once again it’s a smaller number of people</li>
</ul>

<p>that’s what i’ve come up with so far information wise.</p>

<p>I’d rather live in Baits</p>

<p>^^Those are about my impressions as well. I actually tried to move there last year but I was only willing to move into a single so I wasn’t able to get a room.</p>
