I thought the meetings would be more community based, and help you make friends with people that are going through the same experiences as you. |
It was inconvenient. The content of the meetings were not relevant. I stopped going after the second meeting. If you went on a campus tour, you know where the library is. I don't need a meeting to tell me where it is and how to use it. |
Many of the friends I made from my floor and the floor above me are taking the same classes this semester. Since we all need general classes, we are taking them together. I don't think that would happen in any other dorm. |
The freshmen dorm is a true ice-breaker experience. You meet so many people here. My friend lived in Sherburne earlier this year, but there wasn't community there and he moved to Holes. When I went to visit him (in Sherburne), no one had their doors open. It's hard to meet people that way. |
