	Rousse54 November 23 2011	We took tours of two dorms: Bradley Learning Community at Lakeshore and Chadbourne in SE area. The rooms are not big, but serviceable. It looked like there are a lot of planned activities in the dorms [View Full Report]

4 - Very Good	etherdome August 03 2009	The only knock I have of this tour is that we were ushered through a show dorm room. I would have liked to have seen an actual dormitory hallway.....just to get the feel of life in Madison. [View Full Report]

4 - Very Good	volleysnap April 12 2008	I saw two dorms-one set up for the tour in Sellery hall, and one that a friend lives in in the Lakeshore dorms area. I absolutely loved my friend's, but the Sellery hall one seemed a bit rundown [View Full Report]

4 - Very Good	fndrplayer8 April 21 2007	Lake Shore and South dorms all seem very nice. The community bathrooms are frustrating, but have all the modern amenities. The only truly awful dorm, Ogg Hall, is being torn down this summer. [View Full Report]
3 - Good	plaid freak March 22 2007	Hard to say because I only saw a model room. The dorm my son stayed in was ok. Another prospective student we met stayed in a new dorm and said it was amazing. There's a wide variety, apparently. [View Full Report]
