If you put furnald and JJ as your first two choices you will almost certainly get a single somewhere and this eliminates the problem of getting "paired" with anyone at all.
"Almost" is key. It is probably more like 75-80% than 100%.

Second of all, unless you used to be an alcoholic and have gone through rehab there should be no problem if people down the hall drink/smoke/do hard drugs or whatever....its your choice whether to participate in those activities or not.
Some drinkers become a problem to others -- vomiting all over the place, being loud, damaging stuff. And, second hand smoke/pot bothers some.

it isnt housing's responsibility to make sure you have wholesome people around you.
This is true. If you want a wholesome college, Columbia isn't that. Look to a school like Bob Jones or something
