<p>my daughter is a freshman ID this year. She is in daniels on the 8th floor. it is a DAAP overflow. She is loving her classes. She chose to be in a quad. She has nothing but regret about it. She has one room mate that is never in the room because she is working 2 jobs to pay for school. The other 2 are horrible. they seem to feel that my daughter cannot practice her speeches for her speech class in the room, that she should not have a drying rack for her clothes (which she puts away by the next morning)…they run to the RA for every little thing she does. They are 2 weeks before thanksgiving break. they will be having their 5th meeting this week with the RA for complaints by these 2 girls. my daughter has been placed 1st on the list for any rooms that open in Daniels. She has gone to the head of her dorm as well. If nothing changes in her room we will be calling the department of housing and placing a complaint. my daughter is going to tell these 2 girls that part of living in a dorm is respect and compromise…which these 2 girls have yet to do either. she is so stressed out about the living situation it is making it hard to have an all around great experience. she has tons of friends on her floor so it is not my daughter not being able to get along with people.</p>
<p>She said the hardest thing about school is that her professors are not posting grades. One professor has yet to post any grades. </p>
<p>my question is about co-ops. she doesn’t want to live in campus next year (sophmore year). she wants to move to an apartment but all the apartments want you to sign a year long lease. how does that work with being away on co-op? do you just pay your rent and leave your room empty? some apartments said she can pay a fee to find someone else to rent her space in the apartment but then she would not have any place to live when she returns from her co-op to resume school. we were thinking of buying a small house and renting out a room or two to DAAP students in the same situation when they need to have a place to live while not on a co-op.</p>
