Hey,

I've been looking at various schools, and in terms of location and academics, Brown is definitely among my top choices. I'm interested though, in knowing a little more about:

1) The dorms. Are there freshman singles? Suites with singles? (Seriously doubt it, but anything is possible

) Is there somewhere that shows pictures of them?

2) Providence. I've seen pictures and looked at the satellite via google maps (pretty cool way to get a ball park idea of the surrounding area of a school), but how would people who have actually lived there describe it? Urban? Suburban? Is there a city center nearby? Am I in the middle nowhere?

Thanks, guys
