What are the showers at your college dorm like?

<p>Curtains or door stalls? Is there a place to change? Do you bring your towel into the shower or what? Thanks.</p>

<p>Door stalls with curtains
Individual changing areas -- leave your towel, change of clothes, etc.</p>

<p>Of the handful of showers that I've used at differet dorms around Illinois (whether visiting friends or at my own dorm), I haven't found a place yet that doesn't use curtains in the showers. The only place that I've seen that has a place to change within the shower unit is ISU (it seemed a lot like the shower that you'd find at a campground). </p>

<p>Usually I'll just hang my towel over the shower rod so that I can keep track of it (its not a lot of fun when your floormates think its funny to go around stealing towels...then ya gotta improvise by taking the shower curtain off the rod). If you bring a robe with you, most places had a hook to hang it from.</p>

<p>The university I'm going to has one individual shower stall with a curtain. Then outside of the shower there's a change area that's seperated from the rest of the bathroom by another curtain.</p>

<p>I think the problem with showers in college is to avoid being seen naked in the hallway. I wonder how people cover themself up in the towels while running to the dorm to change.</p>

<p>If there's room in the showering area, you could bring your clothes with you. Or if there isn't, just bring a pair of boxers with you. It isn't too difficult.</p>

<p>the showers in my dorm had some sort of non-see through glass doors that shut when you went in. there was contact paper over the glass just to make sure noone could see through.</p>

<p>at oxfordthey were stalls, like bathroom stalls and the shower had a door. I put my towel over the door. btw, the water sucked, the pressure - amazing, the temp - either freezing or boiling</p>

<p>i'm getting a private bathroom</p>

<p>but i'm not there yet, so i can't comment on the quality!</p>

<p>I'm sharing a bathroom with my roomie and that's it, but I haven't seen it yet!</p>

<p>Most of the dorms here have communal bathrooms, but I'm lucky...we have suite-style bathrooms in our dorm. We share a really small bathroom that connects with the room next door. The sinks are actually in our rooms, and the bathroom itself has a toilet and full shower (the kind with a bathtub, not just a stall).</p>

<p>Well we have communal bathrooms but they have floor to ceiling doors. Each shower room has a changing area and a shower. Oddly enough, this is only for the girls bathroom. The guys only have a shower curtain and no changing area.</p>

<p>We have communal bathrooms. It works like this: there is the bathroom with the toilets and the sink and then also a shower. However there is also another private room with a shower in the dorm building. These two showers must be used by the people living on that floor--usually about 6 or 7.
I thought communal bathrooms would be unbearable but I've become used to it and it's not so bad.</p>

<p>also atLady Margeret Hall,the dormswere really nice. One thing I found was that the bigger the dorm room the less stuff it had and the smaller it was the more furniture they crammed into it and the closer you came to your own bathroom (a few rooms actually had their own bathrooms.)</p>

<p>In my dorms there were two stalls with just curtains. There was a bench outside the curtain with a hook above so you could hang your towel. There wasn't a changing area. To shower we came down to the bathroom in our robes, got into the stall, closed curtain, disrobed, reached out carefully to hang it back up.
*shower flipflops are a necessity... in the guys bathroom someone jerked off in the shower and didn't rinse it off the wall.. eww.. I don't trust my bare feet on the shower floor.</p>

<p>Stalls and curtains</p>

<p>My school is Gym sytle. Just all 1 big room. each room has about 8 shower heads. some have 12.</p>

<p>Ive got no problem.</p>

<p>I'm in a suite with 6 people sharing two private baths. It's very nice; both of the showers are curtained, and one of them has both a regular shower head AND handheld shower! It's awesome here.</p>

<p>6 people sharing two baths?!?! We have like 30 sharing two showers and three toilets.</p>

<p>scotch--what school do you go to? i thought they didnt make bathrooms like that in schools anymore haha...</p>
