Umm what happened here?

<p>I just found out my roommate requested a single-sex floor and I did not. Is it more likely we're on the single sex floor or coed? I realllly do not want to live on a single sex floor...</p>

<p>More likely to be on a single sex floor. They pretty much put anyone who requests one on one.</p>

<p>Umm...is there any way I can change out??? I really don't want to be on one!! :(</p>

<p>Request a room change. I bet other men/women would rather be in a single sex floor.</p>

<p>Thanks, how do I do that? Do I just call up housing?</p>

<p>It should be under Room Transfers.</p>

<p>Sorry, but it's really unlikely that you'll get switched out just because you don't want to be on a single sex floor... a lot of people get stuck in it just b/c there are too many spots and too few who want it. Moreover, you have already gotten your roommate assignments. Don't get your hopes up, but it doesn't hurt to try.</p>

<p>I assume you want to have boys/girls on your floor because you want to date or hook up with them. Well, let me tell you from experience -- hooking up and dating the girls on your floor, let alone your building, will lead to nothing but awkwardness, especially if it goes badly. Deal with it and use it as an excuse to go out rather than sit in your dorm all the time trying to chase the local tail.</p>

<p>Um, no, that wasn't really the reason. I just wanted to have a normal co-ed floor experience. Anyway, I called housing and it ends up I'm not on the single sex floor. So I guess my roommate just didn't get her first choice.</p>

<p>It's a good thing you didn't get a single sex floor. The one in our building was like a graveyard.</p>

<p>Well, if that's what you wanted, that's great. It's just been my experience that people (mostly guys) who got single-sexed were *****ing because they had less opportunity to meet women -- so that was my first instinct. Just be careful, a lot of people don't know how to respect other people's space.</p>

<p>Should have requested coed specifically if you didn't want single-sex.</p>

<p>I did it for the dating aspect, though the plan is quite indirect. It's just a way to know more types of people. Knowing more girls could lead to getting more connections and thus chances to date.</p>

<p>I actually ended up on a single-sex (male) floor. Initially nearly everybody on the floor thought it was the worst thing ever, but it actually ended up being a lot of fun as there was a great sense of guy camaraderie and casual-ness on the floor.</p>

<p>Liquidus - Graveyard? Really? Care to explain? What building were you in?</p>

<p>I was in Priestly 5th floor, and the 6th floor was an all girls floor. The difference was night and day. I went to the 6th floor a few times and all the doors are closed and it's very quiet. I imagine an all boys floor would be quite different.</p>

<p>I lived on Priestley's 6th floor and can attest to that, Liquidus. :)</p>

<p>There was a girl next door to me who actually swapped rooms and roommates with another girl living on a co-ed floor, the latter of which requested single-sex so it all worked out.</p>

<p>Liquidus - Ah, I see. Yes, I noticed that with the all girls floor in my building as well!</p>
