So I got this email yesterday, and will probably answer it tonight.

<<Northwestern is piloting a new first-year experience program this next fall and we would like to know if you are interested in being considered for participation in this small pilot. What this would mean for you is that you would take the first quarter of Engineering Design and Communications (EDC1) in the fall quarter as part of a special section. You would live in the same dorm as your fellow classmates in EDC1, Elder Hall on the North end of campus. You will have an opportunity to meet informally with your EDC1 faculty members outside of class periodically over meals in Elder. Some class sections of EDC1 may be held in Elder if it is appropriate to do so.>>

I at first wanted to go to South Campus, and that's pretty much what hinders me from saying immediate yes- i wanted south campus for diverse ppl, evanston, and better dining hall rep
but this doesnt sound too bad at all.

what are your two cents?
are you guys interested?
