| The best first year housing is Turck which has all co-ed floors. Doty is single sex, by floor, and Dupre is co-ed. Turck and Doty have sinks in the room, Dupre does not. Turck and Doty are all first year students while Dupre houses some sophomores. As far as co-ed I think it is just a matter of preference. My daughter lived on a co-ed floor for part of the year and then moved to a single sex floor. She hates single sex housing and refused to even consider it for next year. She says there is just too much estrogen and too much drama on an all womens floor. A lot comes down to how comfortable you are with the opposite sex seeing you walk down the hall after your shower, first thing in the morning etc.. After a few days I think most view the opposite sex on their floor as brother/sister. Also keep in mind that Res Life does as good a job as possible as matching students to their requested housing preference but sometimes it is just not possible. |
