<p>My parents really want me to take the honors housing, but im worried that the honors dorms are socially dead.</p>
<p>I was planning on picking mesa cuz i heard its much more lively than middle earth but i havent heard anything about the honors housing. anyone know what honors housing is like?</p>
<p>It’s the same as the other dorms but it has smarter people in it. From my experience, honors people are more fun to be around (they’re more involved, do cool things and have open minds). I was in a dorm where people weren’t involved in anything, did really lame things, and shut themselves out the rest of the world with very closed minds (academic excellence w/ no honors)… With that said… If you do decide to have any sort of academic housing, go with honors because the other dorms are just fooling themselves and their parents. Other themes are great too.</p>
<p>There’s no basis for saying that Middle Earth is livelier than Mesa Court, it’s a new class each year. Hell everything is up for grabs every new year that goes by…</p>
<p>Are the honors dooms bigger at Loma (Mesa) or Shire (Middle Earth)? I visited the regular dorms at Mesa (Phase IV) and they were really big compared to the dorms at Middle Earth (Phase III). However, Loma seemed small to me… so is there any chance Shire is bigger?</p>
<p>how do I sign up for honors program?</p>
