| Freshmen are placed in all but a couple of the dorms (Severance, the townhouses, interest houses). The website has floor plans for all the dorms. The majority of freshmen are placed in Watson or Goodhue, where you can really develop great friendships. Watson is the 7-story dorm, and has singles (not for freshmen), doubles, and forced triples (not as big as a regular triple, but not bad, sizewise). Goodhue is across the lakes next to the Rec Center and is doubles. My daughter was in Watson as a freshman and in Goodhue as a sophomore, and has enjoyed both experiences. Evans is the party dorm, and has an odd layout. Musser and Myers are more or less identical, not much charm, but residents get very artistic with the ceramic tile walls in the halls. Nourse, Burton, and Davis offer the most interesting (and variable) room layouts. |
