Last year, the freshman dorms were Smith, Reed, Aikens and Hassinger. My son did not think there was a big difference in atmosphere among them, notwithstanding the reputation of Smith as the most frenetic.

They are different in terms of whether floors are coed; on my son’s coed floor, I noticed that the kids viewed as other as friends because they were so used to the sight of each other in bathrobes heading to the bathrooms (which are not coed), etc. I thought this was healthy, although I respect any child too shy to want that situation (as I thought my son might be).

Swat and Single, I encourage your kids to join a lot of activities–I wass very surprised how easy it was for friends of my sons to get radio shows, start clubs of their own with school funding, etc.
