John Muir Housing question.... I am going for a Residence Hall---- double

Tenaya Hall vs Tioga Hall..... Which one should I pick?

I only had a chance to visit one of dorms which was Tioga Hall. What is the male to female ratio of Tioga Hall? Tenaya Hall? What is the best thing you heard about Tioga and/or Tenaya Hall? Dislikes/likes about a particular hall?

what I've heard like 5,001 times is that Tioga is better. there's a much better chance you'll get an ocean view from the higher floors, plus i heard it was being renovated this summer.

im not trying to burst bubbles or anything, but when they "renovated" the suites at UCLA a few years back, all they did was put new carpet throughout and new couches in the common room. that's all they did.

I heard that you don't get a choice..?

if everyone chooses the better hall, then that defeats the point of choosing doesnt it?..since there will be a bigger demand for limited supply of rooms, and in the end they will assign ppl randomly

do you even pick?

i suppose you can put tioga or tenaya under the fill-in-the-blank under "considerations"

i am NIECK i am

I really want Tioga! I know ppl in Tioga too.

it's good you know people there. that way, if you don't get in, you can still visit.

Revive...

I read that 65% of freshman live in triples. I guess the more the merrier?

They have a couple on Muir's webpage. Check the electronic tour or something like that.
