<p>I just got my acceptance letter in the mail yesterday. Really excited. I'll be going to the Williams preview.</p>
<p>Im not sure what to bring. For preview students are the showers public or private? Do all the preview students shower together. </p>
<p>What should I bring to the preview?</p>
<p>Hahaha........</p>
<p>TexasGurl4, I'm going to assume that your question is for real. All of the dorm showers at Williams are private (unless of course the showerees choose to share). Congratulations on your acceptance.</p>
<p>"unless of course the showerees choose to share"-- hehe :D</p>
<p>well, that actually reminds me of something i was wondering about-- to what extent are the Williams dorms coed, if at all (which i presume they are)? i've heard the college is pretty lenient (and somtimes helpful) with regard to most aspects of the social scene.</p>
<p>All dorms are co-ed. I believe all floors are co-ed as well. You may not, however, have a co-ed roommate. With a few exceptions, all frosh dorms have single sex bathrooms. Those that don't, don't by choice (sometimes frosh choose to have two co-ed bathrooms rather than one of each men's and women's). After your frosh year, you effectively get to choose whether or not you have co-ed bathrooms. The bathrooms are private enough that it typically doesn't matter. I chose to have a co-ed bathroom (it's shared by 3 girls and 2 guys), and it's never been the slightest issue. If this is something you're uncomfortable with, it's fairly easy to avoid. I think it's more of an issue for larger bathrooms (bathrooms shared by an entire hallway). Williams bathrooms are typically shared from 0 (private bathrooms) to 7 other students. Frosh year my bathroom was shared by seven guys.</p>
<p>I'll just agree with Haon on this one. I shared with 5 girls (other than myself) freshman year and my dorm this year has a bathroom between every two single rooms. </p>
<p>In general, I think parents are more worried about the coed bathroom thing than students are.</p>
