Pictures of Dorms?

I'm just curious as to what the dorms look like at Rice...

Would any current students be willing to share some pics? =)

I don't have any representative pictures of any of the rooms look like, but I would like to tell you that Rice's dorms vary widely in style between and even within colleges, from Martel and Wiess's (built in the past 5 years) to Lovett's (built in the 60s with lots of exposed brick) to Sid's (kinda weirdly shaped boxes, but with great views) to Baker's 80 year old hall-style dorms.

Despite the varying quality, even the worst rooms at Rice are better than the best rooms at most other schools.

On my tour they showed me a room, which looked very nice in comparison to some others, saying that it was mid-quality as far as within the university. Some pictures of the ends of the spectrum would be nice, though.

Yeah I have no doubt the rooms are all very good, I'm just curious to see what they actually look like.

This is a photo from my room at Lovett:

Lovett rooms are connected by a private bathroom. 4 people share the bathroom in a suite.
