<p>Can someone tell me about the living situation at sid rich? When I visited I stayed in Mcmurtry rooms and they were gorgeous and had bathrooms to themselves. I know there's a lot of variation among the different residential colleges, and I couldn't find the floor plans on the sid rich website. I just got my sid rich letter. Point me to some info please?</p>
<p>I actually really like Sid’s setup. All of the rooms are suite-style, with two doubles sharing a bathroom; the doubles are (generally) sort of L-shaped and divided into two sections. They’re big. No singles, sorry, unless you end up being president. You have super big closets that I am jealous of. I have floorplans on my computer, message me your e-mail and I can send them to you.</p>
<p>Also, it’s a good mix between suite and floor culture, which I don’t think any other college does quite as well.</p>
<p>I was wondering the same thing, since I just got my letter from Sid today. I’ve been reading things online and it seems like Sid is one of the colleges with more of a “party culture”… is this really true? I ask this because I’m generally pretty quiet and I’m not really into that kind of scene, so this has me kind of worried…</p>
<p>yeah me too about the party scene… I just hope I’m not on the 7th floor…</p>
<p>I just pm’d this to sarahausten - the party scene on Sid 7th has a reputation, but I promise you it’s not any wilder than the freshman party spot at any other college. Martel has the Sallyport, Will Rice has Long Hall, Lovett has 2nd floor - the list goes on. Sid has distinct floors (2nd and 5th I think) where they generally place people who aren’t as interested in going out drinking every night 
You’ll be fine.</p>
<p>Here is a floorplan for one of the floors of SRC. Each room (in gray) is a double. You have a suite which has two doubles and a bathroom. SRC does not have any singles</p>

<p>Partial hijack for my first post…</p>
<p>Does someone know where we can get a floorplan of the rooms at WRC? My son has been assigned there. </p>
<p>Also, are there “non party” floors at WRC? If so, how can he be assured of getting on one of those floors?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>@Stanwood -
Will Rice’s website is being re-done, but there should be floor plans in the o-week book, which you will be receiving shortly. Will Rice has two key sections - an older hall full of double-rooms, and a newly redone section that just opened last year. There are definitely non-party areas at WRC, and o-week coordinators are generally very good at assigning rooms to freshmen based on answers to the housing forms.</p>
<p>stanwood - let me see if I can find and post floorplans for WRC</p>
<p>Thanks for the info.</p>
<p>He clearly stated that he does not party so we’re hoping they take it seriously when determining a roommate and area/floor in the dorm. It’s not a religious or moral issue really, it’s more of a “my body is a temple” issue. I hope he finds like minded folks down there.</p>
<p>You will be ok. There are many people who prefer a quiet place to live and there are those who like it noisy. The advisers are usually good with honoring these requests</p>
<p>Sidizen here. I’ll give a short answer so as not to spoil the O-Week fun. Rooms are exactly as silentsailor said, suites of two doubles with a shared bathroom (you may be interested in knowing that all rooms have walk-in closets). As for partying being a problem, honestly, don’t worry about it. True, it can get loud on the weekends, but for the most part we are a fairly civilized bunch. Also, the distance between floors helps a lot with noise control, so unless the party is going on right outside your door, it won’t be too distracting.</p>
