<p>I was just wondering can you bring your own tv if you have a single? and what about the meal plans? I already have my plans for housing done and I just also want to know what are the perks of being a CU student, like name the artists of the concerts, and broadway plays, etc. All right later guys, One love.</p>

<p>Yes. You can also bring a TV if you have a double. You have to pay for cable ($25/month when I was there). I recommend having a TV in your room. It beats fighting with other people to watch a particular show that you want to watch. But, don't just be antisocial and sit in your room and watch TV alone 24/7.</p>

</p>
<p>Everyone says most points, least meals. The dining hall sucks. Nobody wishes they had more meals.</p>
<p>its 27.95 a month now...in my opinion its a waste if you are living in any of the freshman dorms....u can just go watch it for free in the lounge</p>
<p>If you have a tv, I would bring it; I watch Survivor (deride if you must) which comes on at 8 on thursdays, but at 8 on thursdays you can't get anywhere near a lounge tv because of the OC. It's just nice if no one wants to watch what you do. </p>
<p>I went on the tour before applying, and the guide said to get the most points and the fewest meals. Somehow, I talked myself out of it. I picked the meal plan with eleven meals per week, and I didn't think that was going to be nearly enough. The dining hall meals are sub-par to say the least (except breakfasts which are good). One other thing to consider is that the dining hall is only open for two meals a day: brunch and dinner. I based my meal plan decision on 3 meals per day only to find that they didn't even offer that many. I ate at the dining hall every meal for the last three months and I still lost about 60 meals first semester. Do yourself a favor and believe the students who tell you to get the most points and the fewest meals.</p>
<p>so is the tv just for doubles? can you have one in a single???</p>
<p>Yes, you can have a TV in any dorm room.</p>
<p>That's Cool I have heard rumors of students pulling all night halo parties...Is this true? ive never played this game in my life but i know about it. Do you like need that for a quick connection? Also tell the truth man... who has the best dorms? And Also are there any dorms with just a single bathroom? Im not a germaphobe, but i do take long showers (yes im spoiled) and who is the cleanest?</p>

<p>You just have to run a cable from the lounge to your room. People do this all the time.</p>

<p>You have to get very lucky as a senior to get a personal bathroom, dude. Get used to sharing.</p>

<p>Yep, every dorm room has high-speed ethernet.</p>

<p>They're all over campus for free.</p>
<p>so really guys how is is the food? if its all you can eat....why do people always says its crappy and what is the best dorm?</p>
<p>The food is horrible. If mud was all you can eat, would you stuffing yourself silly every night?</p>
<p>Two random questions about computers: 1) is the campus wireless at all? 2) is the campus linux friendly?</p>
<p>1) The entire outdoor campus is wireless. Some of the academic buildings are wireless. The dorms aren't wireless.</p>
<p>2) What do you mean by "linux friendly"? You're welcome to use linux or some other obscure OS that you feel like using.</p>
<p>What are the hall bathrooms like?</p>
<p>I've heard at some schools there are individual cubicles, while at others there's little more than a curtain separating you from the person next door.</p>
<p>I know there's nothing I can DO about it, I'm just wondering what I should be ready for.</p>
<p>if the food is bad, should i do the meal plan? really if i'm going out to eat all the time, i would rather use the meal plan money to out and eat.</p>
<p>There is now wireless in almost all the big lecture halls and throughout alot of classrooms. There's wireless in the dorms in some of the building lounges. </p>
<p>Yes, the food is bad yet edible.</p>
<p>The bathrooms are just like public bathrooms except they have showers which have curtains. That's the case for most hallway style dorms. However dorms with suites (including Carmen) have a bathroom that's more like ur bathroom at home but with an extra sink.</p>
<p>Just to be clear, the individual rooms don't have wireless.</p>
<p>The food is bad, but you can't get out of the meal plan. Money-making scheme. If you want to eat out, you still have to buy the meal plan.</p>
