Porter

<p>Who else is officially in Porter? I know I am.</p>

<p>I am.
I need to send in my room preferences and everything still.
Coed. Double. I just dont know what theme.</p>

<p>I am. </p>

<p>there is no theme if its coed. that just means like, all female or substance free or outdoors lover...righht? you dont need to choose one right?</p>

<p>^ Correct. Coed = default</p>

<p>I'm in, and I put the film floor as my highest preference. Looking forward to it.</p>

<p>Yeah this is going to be awesome! When it gets closer all Porter college confidential people should plan where to like meet up in september.</p>

<p>i think you can choose which co-ed themed hall you want... "visual arts, outdoor experience, performing arts, gender studies and film and digital media."
i chose visual arts.</p>

<p>yahh. i dont really fit into any of those themes so i didnt choose one.</p>

<p>ya i know how you feel.
they really need a music one!</p>

<p>does anyone know if you can have a bunk with a desk underneath it in a double? can you even loft your beds in a double?
i think i might apply for a triple or a quad because i really want a bunk bed with a desk underneath it. haha.</p>

<p>okay just make sure your not going to be uncomfortable with that situation.
i thought id like lofts but they actually are really scary to sleep in, especially with such low ceilings. </p>

<p>no i dont think you can do double with lofts.</p>

<p>Actually I am pretty sure you can loft your beds in doubles. All rooms single through quad have the same beds and can stack on the desk as far as I remember. Each roommate gets his own bed, desk, and dresser/closet and you and your roommate can decide how to arrange the room.</p>

<p>What are your majors going to be? Mine is the computer game design one.</p>

<p>I wrote an email to housing just to make sure.....</p>

<p>Q: It is my priority to have a desk with a bunk bed over it. Do all triples and quads have this feature?
Is it possible to loft a bed in a double high enough to fit a desk under it?</p>

<h2>A: At Porter College, the quads and triples both offer lofted beds. However the double rooms do not.</h2>

<p>I dont know if he meant you cant loft your bed at all in a double or if you can loft it high enough to fit a desk under it but either way a double isnt for me</p>

<p>Im in and I think I chose the visual arts theme.</p>

<p>my major is environmental scence and hopefully with an emphasis in sustainable foods. yahh hippie. </p>

<p>do you think the triples hav enough room in them??</p>

<p>I lived in Porter dorms for 2 years and the apartments for a 3rd. Not all rooms have the same furniture. In fact, Porter has quite a jumble of mismatched beds/dressers/desks. There's no guarantee that you'll have a loftable bed, unless you're in a triple or quad.</p>

<p>Is the Koi pond I saw when I visited apart of Porter? If so, do the fish have names :P</p>

<p>yup, the koi pond is definitely Porter. I'm pretty sure the koi are named - the activities office would be the best place to ask.</p>

<p>NOOOOOOO! O well that's cool. Now I just have to find out the names.</p>
