Housing/Roommates?

Any other new first years heard anything yet? Our mail is hopelessly slow .... if you have, did you hear via email or postal mail?
Thanks!

Actually, we just found that by logging in to that Denison Self Service thing....the one with the id and birthdate for log in info.....and following the link for housing info.....VOILA.....the dorm, room # and roommate name are all right there.
The only thing we can't find are floor plans.....oh well.
My son will be in giant dorm Shorney, for better or worse.

That's where our dd was last year. With a whole bunch of other similarly incoming students She said while there is lots of social gathering there, it's not nearly so raucous as many portray it. And it's very close to the academic action, including the library and computing center. And there are loads of other freshmen who room there and at Smith, next door. And it's easily accessible to unload the family van. Imo, a great location for frosh. And once in the rooms, one will think they are in a college dormitory. Or correctional facility. Go figure. And once unloaded DU does a very nice job engaging parents in the process.

"Oh the days dwindle down ...to a precious few ..."

Go Big Red!!! And good luck all you freshly-hatched turkey buzzards! Make your parents proud ...and feeling like their $$$'s being invested well.

Remember, Hinckley's just up the road.
