<p>There's one for Hedrick, might as well start one for Dykstra.</p>
<p>yea i would like to know too. just got my housing and im in a double with benedict in dykstra. ive heard it was one of the more social dorms but its also one of the oldest.</p>
<p>^ that's my roommate.</p>
<p>I heard Dykstra doesn't have private changing area so I guess I'll just have to live with it. Luckily they have shower stalls and not shower curtains haha.</p>
<p>dykstra: </p>
<ul>
<li>social</li>
<li>close to de neve dining hall and crossroads cafe</li>
<li>close to south campus and bruinwalk</li>
<li>close to frat houses</li>
<li>half first years, half returners</li>
</ul>
<p>Don't worry about the changing area. I usually just grab a bathrobe and walk to my room to change. It's easier than carrying all my clothes with me. I heard that Dykstra next year is going to be first years only floors 2-4, and mixed the others. Can anybody confirm that?</p>
<p>D-luv! :)</p>
<p>Dykstra is closest to the rest of campus, is the most "social" (rooms face each other across the hall), and is so-called "convenient" by my friend. It also happens to be the oldest dorm, making it look less appealing to other residential halls.</p>
<p>Some people say that the ceilings are lower and the rooms are slightly smaller, but I'm not sure if that's true.</p>
<p>I have a question though. Is it likely at all for a freshman to be rooming with an upperclassman?</p>

<p>possible but more likely youll be partnered up with another freshman if you requested random roommate.</p>
