Shaw?

how hard is it to get into the shaw leadership house? does anyone live there/ know someone who has lived there, and how did they like it? i'm almost positive i'm going to apply, it sounds like a great experience but i don't know

also how are the other special housing options? i'm not in honors, but i've heard the living arrangement in honors housing is townhouse style and pretty interesting, and also what about the culture house?

sorry i have so many questions but there are sooo many options!

Everyone I know who lived in shaw (about ten people) loved it at the beginning of the year and absolutely hated it by the end. While many dorms at BC are close communities, Shaw become too close because you are obligated to spend so much time together with no escape.
I should mention that I had friends in shaw during each of my four years at BC (classes of 07-10) and everyone says the same thing: "shaw brings out the worse in people"
